Hello
I'm 99% sure I've got adware or malware running on my PC. I first noticed a problem when web pages took increasingly longer to load. The problem got worse when hyperlinks did not always link to the page they meant to e.g. Google search link would return Facebook or even Ask Jeeves and Yahoo pages!! This has made surfing tedious at times.
I have taken the steps suggested in the Read Me. Please find my results below. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sam
