Anyone have this happen to them?

I think I have a virus in my computer. I use Firefox and my homepage is the default Google Search Engine. Sometimes when I click on a search result it would take me to a different website's search results. AND sometimes it brings me to a website that exclaims it is sending viruses at me. And sometimes Google works as it should.

What should I do? I've already "Cleaned" my computer with AOL Computer check up, McAfee scan, and Piriform CCleaner as well as some Windows cleaner. It still happens though. Is my computer trying to kill me?

Get a proper anti malware program like Spybot Search & Destroy and try that. Get it here.

Next time, you should wear protection.

I'd go with this suggestion if I were you

I like to reformat if I run into problems with my computer, but that's more work than a lot of people want to put in so... I say just download 2 or 3 antivirus programs and run them in safe mode (make sure you run them in safe mode).

whats the name of the program claiming to fix it? research it on google if you can to find anit-malware software to get rid of itmonkeyd_93

I uninstalled Firefox, and reinstalled it. If I got rid of the program, why does it still have all my bookmarks? Also, I've discovered I have this problem on al my search engines (I suppose, it's the same with AOl search)

Try another Anti-Virus program and reinstall Firefox. If it doesn't work reformat PC.-AK47-

Does reformatting my PC get rid of all my data, memory, and programs?

If you reformat you will lose everything and have to start from scratch. You have a malware or spyware infection. Install and run Spybot Search and Destroy, Spyware Terminator, Ad Aware, or any of the popular anti spyware programs. Have you done this?
