I just upgraded to the newest version for Windows 7. And almost every time I do a search I get a redirect to an unwanted site. How do I stop this?

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.
