I'll be surfing the web, clicking on search results (most recent was a typing tutorial site) and I get sent to a completely different site, which is full of advertising links. I click back, and then click the same site again, and that time I get to where I originally wanted. This happens on almost every 3rd link I click.
I ran a spyware program, and it found nothing.
What is causing this? It is very annoying. And what is the motivation for messing up people's computers like this? Does anyone actually click on any of those links or buy any products? I'd think the lack of sales revenue or sales commissions would deter anyone from taking the time to make such malwear.
