Blekko and Possible Other Program Problem?

[KeeKeePie]

Whenever I use my search engine (google) and select a page, it opens up a completely different page that is obviously filled with malicious software or ads. I'm actually on my phone now because I cannot open this site on my laptop. Does the same thing in Google Chrome.

I've seen Blekko pop up multiple times and have tried uninstalling it from my computer/ browser, but its either not there or I can't find it.

I'm a writer and I can't do the necessary research for my book because of this problem. Please help!

Hi and welcome to MalwareTips!

I'm Fiery and I would gladly assist you in removing the malware on your computer.

Before we start:

• Note that the removal process is not immediate. Depending on the severity of your infection, it could take a long time.
• Malware removal can be dangerous. I cannot guarantee the safety of your system as malware can be unpredictable. It is possible that we might encounter situations where the only recourse is to re-format and re-install your operating system. Therefore, I would advise you to backup all your important files before we start.
• Please be patient and stay with me until I give you the green lights and inform you that your PC is clean.
• Some tools may be flagged by your antivirus as harmful. Rest assure that ALL the tools we use are safe, the detections are false positives.
• The absence of symptoms does not mean your PC is fully disinfected.
• If you are unclear about the instructions, please stop and ask. Following the steps in the order that I post them in is vital.
• Lastly, if you have requested help on other sites, that will delay and hinder the removal process. Please only stick to one site.
