JayTee asked:

Just the other day my computer began acting funny and it said there was adware found. Something about a detection of unregistered Anti Virus, that i had adware. When i used the internet it would redirect me from website to a security page saying the page likely contains adware. When i tried using google i could make it to the homepage but there was a box at the bottem that said googlel detected unregistered adware. I think i had Norton Anti Virus, I downloaded Panda internet security. I also downloaded Avast and ran multiple scans, discovered adware, infections which were suppesedly fixed by Avast, and deleted one program that was infected. That was lastnight, and today the computer said adware was detected? I rely heavily on yahoo answers for my computer problems. Please help if you you can tell me how to fix these problems.

D-Scan asked:

Ever since spyware was installed the other day (and I removed it), Google has been redirecting to other spyware websites, and it says ‘analitic-checks.google.com’ in the status bar. I have used every spyware removal program under the sun.
