Hello all,

   Thanks in advance for help!!

-Recent issue with my laptop.... when you search for something, all the results of the search come up with links to other sites-that are not even relevant to what I searched for.  Example- I did a search for "fishing rod maintenance".  The bold portion of the search results is relevant, but the website listed at the bottom of each result is not relevant (i.e. www.landvoyage.com or www.megasearch.com or www.fittingdeals.com).

anyone have an idea what this could be?

USMCGYSGT,

This board is for users of PC-Doctor hardware diagnostics software. That being said…

Sounds like you have a browser hijacker.  On an uninfected computer download a browser hijacker removal tool and run it on the system in question.
