How do I disable re-directs? My searches go to other sales/ marketing sites.
When I select a site to visit, I click on the Bolded Title and Firefox takes me to a marketing site for similar products. Very frustrating!

You may have a search re-direct virus.
Download, install and update as many of the following as possible until your infections are cleaned.
- The free versions of these scanners will detect infections and clean your system; no need to purchase
- Different malware scanners detect some malware that other scanners do not.
- If you are unable to download the malware programs,
- change the name of the installer program before saving the download to your hard drive, and
- once installed, go to the installation folder for the program and change the name of the program executable file (i.e., for Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, change mbam.exe to xyz-mb.exe), then update the program and run the scan.
- you may need to download on an un-infected computer, change the name of the installer program, copy the installer to a CD or USB thumb drive, and transport to your system for installation.
- Some stubborn malware will need to be removed in Windows Safe Mode with Networking'. WARNING: Download all the tools first, then disconnect your modem before entering Windows Safe Mode, as your Firewall and AV/AS probably will not load in Windows Safe Mode. See:
- Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware - http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php

If these don't find or can't clear the infection(s), post in one of these forums for specialized malware removal help:
- Read and follow their rules for posting
- Follow their instructions to the letter
- Be patient; you are put in a queue and you will get a response when they get to your post
