How do I stop unwanted redirection to a new site?

I am running Win XP sp3, FF 20. When I click on a link to open in a new tab I am redirected to a site I do not want. Before the site opens I get a "WOT" notice that the site is untrustworthy. I have run "clean disk", CCLeaner, AVG AV, Super Spyware Pro and Malwarebites. Everything is clean according to those programs but the problem still exists. I also have checked to see if I have any add-ons that I did not recognize or windows Add/remove programs that I did not add. They all seemed to be OK. Does anyone have any suggestion how I can solve this problem?

Thanks,

Ben

hello ben, web-of-trust is an addon for firefox - if you don't like the functionality, you can remove it from firefox/tools > addons > extensions.

Disable or remove Add-ons

WOT is not the problem. Being diverted to unwanted web sites is.

can you go to firefox > help > troubleshooting information, copy the information about your extensions there & paste them into a forum reply here...

WOT is not the problem, but you should uninstall DriverAgent if you don't need it and go through full lists of plugins. Additionally, enter about:config and check for newtab variable value.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

you can also install the search reset addon - it will revert the most common customizations those adware programs do in firefox back to the default: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/

You can try to rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js files and a possible user.js file to reset all prefs to the default values.
