Everytime I try to access Google, my computer redirects itself to the
following address: collections.inhost.info/detect/urgent.html (no www) This
is one of those sites thst tries to sell you some file removal system. I
have searched my computer as best as I can but can't find the reason for
this. Can anyone suggest anything?

could be your browser has been hijacked. Spybot is a free
program that can detect and disable unwanted BHO's
(browser helper objects)Its here:
http://download.com.com/3120-20-0.html?qt=spybot&tg=dl-
2001&search=+Go%21+ or a google search for "spybot would
work too. Adaware is another good program. Both are
freeware. be sure to update them before using them and
read the instructions :)

hope this helps...
