    I've had problems for a while with one site which I can access, but once I log in, everytime I select something, it immedietly switches to a site called adopt.bar.com. The only way i can stop going to this page is by clicking stop, but then i get caught between pages. I've run ad-aware and it shows trackers but doesn't solves the problem. I've also run a Hijack This scan but I'm just wondering if there's an easier option to get rid of this?

    Please follow the steps below:

    - Run ALL the steps in this Sticky thread READ & RUN ME FIRST Before Asking for Support

    Make sure you check version numbers and get all updates.

    - Very Important: Make sure you tell us the results from running the tutorial...was anything found? Were you unable to complete any of the scans?...Were you unable to download any of the tools?...Did you do the on-line scans as suggested? etc.


    After doing ALL of the above you still have a problem make sure you have booted to normal mode and run the steps in the below link to properly use HijackThis and attach a log:

    Downloading, Installing, and Running HijackThis
