| 596970 | 2007-10-02 01:22:00 | Hi Guys I have the problem that whenever I hit a link it jumps to a different site, usually a naughty one. It will show the correct address in the address bar for a few seconds and then jump to one of these other sites. E.g google search pc world, results comes up, click on the link which has pc world, bit of a pause then it jumps to naughty site. Any Ideas? |

| 596974 | 2007-10-02 02:13:00 | IMO, don't try spyware doctor. It slows your PC down something chronic, and often has compatibility issues with other software. Other free apps (adaware, spybot, ccleaner) do a better job. | wratterus (105) | ||

| 596979 | 2007-10-02 10:38:00 | um it is a PC just cos it has Linux on it don't mean its not a pc. Ya mean just use FF on windows. which we do on the laptop. and too poor to pay for Nod32 even though it is not much. just use Avast, which is just as good i reckon. |
