You said this started to happen on 9th july. Do you remember did you install some program that day?
 
That's date is a guess-tamate. I haven't installed anything new recently.

I had a similar problem ages ago, I don't think that was spigot though, it was something else. I sorted that myself reasonably easily.

It's all very strange.
 
Actually, I just checked my other browsers. Firefox and Explorer are both working normally now. It's just Chrome doing it.
 
Yes! I did try that before, but this time it seems to have worked. No more redirect.

TwinHeadedEagle you have been a fantastic. Thank you for your tenacity and your patience. Total respect.

Click Run button and wait a few seconds for the programme completes his work.
At this point all the tools we used here should be gone. Tool will create an report for you (C:\DelFix.txt)

The tool will also record healthy state of registry and make a backup using ERUNT program in %windir%\ERUNT\DelFix
Tool deletes old system restore points and create a fresh system restore point after cleaning.
