When I do a search (for anything), the browser redirects me to a new page, usually an advertisement. How do I keep this from happening?

My home page opens just fine. When I type a search topic in the search box, it goes to the list of possible websites. But when I click on any of those choices, the browser is automatically redirecting my to a different page (usually an advertisement). How do I keep this from happening any more? I am extremely frustrated...

You have spyware. There seems to be a new trend of rogue websites doing 'drive-by' installs of spyware FF addons. Unfortunately you did not copy the entire list into your detail, so we can't see what you have. We need the entire list of Extensions from the about:support page. In my case, it was disguised as XULRunner (a legitimate FF extension).

Also, make sure your antivirus/antispyware is up to date and scan your system (however, these extensions will not usually be detected).

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