So, I'm having this issue when I use google to search and click on a link. The link will then take me to an unrelated spam-filled random search engine designed to wreck my system.

Malwarebytes' scan turns up nothing. Can anyone help?

I'm not a computer guy, but [livejournal.com profile] shadowravyn and [livejournal.com profile] k1ttycat both had similar problems and I managed to figure it out and fix them. Mostly by poking around forums online, rebooting in safe mode, futzing with the registry, and renaming my anti-malware programs to fool the malware. If you can't puzzle it out on your own, bring it over, I'll see what I can do.

Assuming it's a laptop. If it's desktop, I can find some time to drop by.

Can you get a laptop to boot? Mine won't anymore.

Maybe, but probably not, as I said, I'm not a computer person.
