This is driving me mad

and i dont know how to stop it,


I'll explain,

When i type an address in the address bar
i.e. www.boards.ie ---- it brings me to boards.ie

BUT

When i click the drop down arrow on the address bar a few seconds later is says this

"www.boredlife.com/p/www.boards.ie"

This is happening with every link i type in ,,

I have done spybot searchs, virus searches and it's still there,,,,

anyone got any idea why ?

your browsers been hijacked mate.

download this: http://www.spychecker.com/program/hijackthis.html

and then review the results and use it to remove anything with the boredlife url in it. that should do the trick.

remember 'google is your friend'. google search results

as a matter of keeping things tidy, make sure you run updates on spybot and your antivirus before you run them or they are next to useless.

Its a spyware/logging site AFAIK.

Just redirects you but saves your browser history, for "nefarious purposes"

Download Hijack This

And delete all the bored life stuff.
Its to do with the default prefix of IE I think.
