I think I have malware on my computer. I get redirected to ads / other websites when I click on links on google.
Sometimes there's a problem after rebooting where all I see is my desktop background and nothing else on my screen / freezes. I turn off my laptop if that happens.
Other than that- I have no other problems.
I don't have any experience with viruses or malware; I use free antivirus programs like avg.
Recently (after looking at similar posts) I downloaded various antivirus/malware/antispyware programs like malwarebytes, hijackthis, unhackme, kaspersky, eset, and more. Some of those programs I uninstalled.
These programs still haven't fixed my problem though some of them did alert me of some viruses and I deleted them.
One more thing I should mention is that I used system restore early into the onset of this problem. (Yes, that was stupid. I'm sorry if it complicates things). I restored to an earlier time.
That's about it -
Thank you (and sorry in advance for not knowing much about my computer)
