Is this a website issue, or my pc ?
Some of my favourites work as usual, some redirect to the above.

Regards,
Gustav

Ok, some of my favourites open normally, some re-direct to smokiads.
This would be using the latest Firefox.

Am using Win 10, the single language edition.

Avast anti virus, updated, latest Spybot, updated signatures.
Yesterday the pc was fine, I did not install any software, I did not visit any new sites.
I did not click on any "Do you want to " buttons.

Normally I sort this out without help, but I am missing something, somewhere :scratch:

Hi GustavJimny,

Someone can take a look at the system for you. :)

Please see the Malware Removal Forum (http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=22) sticky which includes guidelines and instructions in post #2 on how to provide the logs from Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and aswMBR, which are the logs used in the preliminary analysis.

Then start a new topic in that forum providing the logs so a volunteer analyst can assist. :kboard:

Best regards.
