Hello! I've got a major issue, here, and I'm copying & pasting the full post from another site (because it includes another user's name, I'll replace it w/ X's.) It explains the issue in detail. I included source code to display the actual redirect issue proof. THANKS, GUYS!

I know this is becoming a common issue, but I still haven't found a cure. Every time I click a link in google, it opens a new tab and redirects me to some other site. I am using Firefox and I have run a scan in MalwareBytes to no success. I also cleared the extra lines in my HOSTS file which did nothing. Any ideas?

Please let us know. I'm running Windows 7 H.P. x64 OEM (Dell.)
I've tried several rootkit products, am running Norton 360, MBAM 1.50.1, Spybot S&D 1.6.2, JavaCool SpywareBlaster 4.4, SUPERAntiSpyware Professional (Current Revision) Lifetime. Norton+MBAM are only live products; the rest are on-demand. SAS is disabled currently (Crashes and alternate data streams / kernel direct access cause this.)
I hope this extra info. helps.
PS - Here's what the source code reads as in Firefox 3.6.18. (Keep this version, 5.0 is difficult for me.)

Thanks,
