Redirects happen when using Google.

I enter a search phrase in Google (e.g. Cheese Making). Within 0.2 seconds Google shows several thousand search results. The first result has a URL of www. cheesemaking.co.uk, so I click on this. What opens up is K-directory.co.uk, showing a list of ten sites each selling Will-Making services. I hit the browser Back button to return to Google’s page of search results, then again click on www. cheesemaking .co.uk: this time the correct page opens – www. cheesemaking.co.uk. If I click the arrow next to the browser’s (IE) Back button, the words Jump, and Redirect, are there. The first click on a Google page of search results always results in an unwanted page opening that is not the page shown by Google – I have frequently had a page from The Free Dictionary by Farlex, half of which is a mixture of adverts for a diversity of products. Installed on the computer is Norton Internet Security, which includes Norton Antivirus; Webroot Spysweeper; MIS TrojanHunter; and Microsoft Windows Defender
