How do I stop getting redirected when I go to certain sites like ESPN?
Sometimes when I go to a site I get redirected to other sites. It happens on ESPN and game sites mostly but it can happen at anytime on any site. I hit back and go to the site I want and then seconds later I am redirected again.

Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs.
You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.
