Links that show up for no apparent reason.
 
Recently I've been getting links that aren't needed. For instance, if I say movies, for some reason it will become a link. I don't know why. Here are a few examples.

I looked to see if I could get rid of it, but I can't find searchmiracle on my computer.

Spyware.

Well, how do I get it off?

Ad-Aware SE works great. Search google for the link. Or there's a thread in this forum with the link.

Run Spybot Search and Distroy and then use Firefox instead of IE

Yeah I have noticed the same thing, I dunno if it's because it's IE or not though, I stopped using IE now.

Ad-aware SE will detect some stuff that Spybot won't, i've had both and I just use Ad-aware SE now, Firefox is a good browser but it had one or two things that annoyed me (some colored text appearing as white amongst other things) so I switched to Avant Browser, which has all the stuff I like about Firefox and none of the problems. :cool:
