Whenever I search for something on google, the search results are displayed normally. But when I click on any of the links, they take me to another website. This happens with all the links and I am directed to that same unintended website and then it start showing error messages like -- " your computer has been infected" or "virus scan required". It's clearly a malware or something, but i can't figure out how to get rid of it. Please HELP!!
