for some reason i keep getting redirected in firefox and ie when i click or go to any site, it has taken me about 30 tried just to post this message and i have no idea whats caused it :confused:

i keep getting sent to a site called greatfeedmill.com
this is a fresh install of windows 7 home premium and i dont have any antivirus software, i used housecall and it detected and cleaned some trojans but it seems something is still on my pc

here is a picture of what happens, you can see at the bottom left that im on this forum and it says "Waiting for greatfeedmill.com..." :mad:

anyone else ever had this or know a way to fix it? i really dont fancy installing windows again
 
thanks for all the help guys :) i just found a solution on a other forum where someone had used ccleaner first and then malwarebytes :)

ill definetly be grabbing some av software in the morning :p
 
thanks for the advice :) i have it turned on tho
i know what caused the virus now and it was all my own fault, rather than install my version of psotoshop i decided to get a lite version from newsgroups :rolleyes:
must have been packaged with the installer or something but lesson learned

i hope i didnt seem rude by asking for help here and then coming back to post about getting it from another place, i didnt expect to get help so fast and it was a mission to load any kind of webpage :)

im about to install AVAST Home as Swordfish suggested so thanks again guys
