Hi,

I've been having problems with my mozilla firefox due to redirection issues for the past few days/weeks. I was able to circumvent this issue by using chrome. But it seems that chrome isn't immune to this problem anymore. I've also noticed that its preventing my antivirus software (symantec endpoint protection) from updating itself. I keep updating it, but it never registers on my software. (It says the last update was on feb 22) I've also ran the malwarebites anti-malware software and its coming back clean.

Please let me know what other information you need.

Thanks in advance.
