I have a problem and don't know if it's a virus or similar. When 'clicking' on a link in a brouser window I get re-directed to an
unwanted URL. It is always: www/massearch.com

Any ideas?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Remove it with CWShredder:
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/cwshredder.zip
Unpack and run CWShredder.exe. Insure that all Internet Explorer windows
are closed.

happening again:

Get and update then run frequently after checking for new updates:

Thank you VERY MUCH for the suggestion, but that didn't work. :0(
