Firefox re-direct virus

Hi there!

Has anyone else had trouble with a virus that re-directs their browser to spam sites?

I keep doing searches in Google, and the search results reveal things like Wikipedia, or Snopes, the usual sites, depending on what I'm searching for. But then when I click those links, it's some kind of spammy, questionable site that scares me.

The only reason I ask is, becaause it only started happening since I started going to KR. The guy in the repair shop said that it might be some sites that I've been visiting.

And no ... I know what you're thinking. I haven't been to any weird porn sites.

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

I've run into it at my job. It may be an Add-On to Firefox that needs to be removed manually.

I take our site's security very seriously - there are weekly scans for malware, viruses, and hacks, and I am fanatic about applying security updates, sometimes TOO quickly...

If you need further help removing it, hit me up on Facebook chat, and I will try to help.

Hi there!

I'm at work now, and my laptop is at home. The more I think about it, I'm actually more worried now that it might be Calimacil, since most of the weird spam sites it's been taking me to were Canadian. [sings "Blame Canada"] I wonder if other Calimacil customers have had a problem. I often check KR and other LARP-related sites from work, too, and none of my work computers seem to have a problem.

Oh well, I figure it out. I may just have to get another virus cleaning.

Thank you, though!
