hi, until recently my internet has been working fine and
whenever i got a page cannot be displayed message it came
up on white background displaying info. But since last
week when a page cannot be displayed it redirects me to a
website called searchcentrix.com which i havent told my
computer to do! i then get bombarded with install porn
messages and other adverts which i dont want! how can i
stop my browser going to this page? i have deleted
cookies and temp files and even restored default web
settings but it still does it! help me please!
