[QUOTE="LvonB, post: 284112, member: 29480"] I have tested both Explorer and Firefox. I did various searches and checked various sites. [B]I am very glad to say that[/B] I was not redirected anywhere, no ad appeared on the side proposing stuff, no extra hyperlinked words where in the texts I looked at. To my surprise, FR MSN is installed as the home page on Explorer, with Bing, which I have no use for, but it's a minor surprise. Yesterday, I had noticed two icons on my desktop, one was something like Gameo online, for games I suppose, they are gone. Explorer and Firefox were slow opening at first (circle going round and round), so I restarted the system. Now, they are back to a quick response. The circle keeps going round on round on news sites like Huff Post or Huffington Post, but I suppose it's normal. I think my computer got infected watching a movie online. Should I get rid of some of the malware search tools I downloaded, like SuperAntiSpyware which Malwarebytes Anti-Malware claims it's a trojan? I very much thank you and appreciate the help you provided me. All these requests for help must keep you very busy. Do you think everything is back to normal? [/QUOTE]
