virus or browser hijacked?

Hey I am on Windows 7 and got something screwing up my web browsers, when I load pages it seems to be inserting extra on the end of urlsh screwing up pages loading gobbledy-gook or asking me to download the php file. I was running avg and Windows firewall so I don't know how this got on, how can I deal with this?

Download Malwarebytes.... install/update the reboot into safemode and run the software and then clean.

Saved me a couple of times,

Worth checking your proxie settings after running malwarebytes. They often mess it up too.

Apparently everyone in the house has the same thing so it might be a router problem? Thanks I will do the malware bytes thing now.

Are they all using the same AV if so then that's the problem (and what you should be getting shot of for something miles better)
