Both of my laptops are currently experiencing problems with redirecting. It started as an issue specific to google searches. The link would redirect me to a random website, in which case I would press back until I got to google, and the second attempt at the website would work just fine. Now both computers are redirecting a few minutes after clicking any link, and not confined to google.
I ran Hijack this last week, and fixed EVERYTHING.
This is the log for today:
