why is mozilla firefox redirecting webpages to http://go.goadvs.com
it only happens on certain news websites, but while viewing a news article, the web browser will be re-directed to go.goadvs.com webpage with an advertisement. If i hit the "back" arrow, it will go back, then a few seconds later redirect again
i've tried the various malware removal tools and thought i'd succeeded but it's returned - how can i remove it entirely, permanently?
tks

Does this happen at some sites? Many?

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners. Each works differently. If one program misses something, another may pick it up.
