After doing a search, when I click on the website I want to go to, it will go to some search or ask type of site and not the one I tried to go to.

After a search, when I click on the site I want to go to, it will take me to a different site (like an ask or search type of site, seems like the same 3 or 4 always) when I to go back to the search page ( takes 2 or 3 clicks on the back arrow) and try the site I wanted again it will send me to the wrong site again. I have to do this 3 or 4 times until it will go to the site I want. If I copy n paste the site url in the navigation bar it will go to the site I want, but it's kind of a pain to do that, and I never had to do that before. Also, it does the same thing if I'm using yahoo or google to search. Thank you in advance

Sounds like search redirect malware.

Install, update, and run these programs in this order. They are listed in order of efficacy.
(Not all programs detect the same Malware, so you may need to run them all to solve your problem.)
These programs are all free for personal use, but some have limited functionality in the "free mode" - but those are features you really don't need to find and remove the problem that you have.
Note: If your Malware infection is bad enough and you are mis-directed to URL's other than what is posted, you may have to use a different PC to download these programs and use a USB stick to transfer them to the afflicted PC.
