my browser is being redirected

[Legalbeagle77]

Hello again,

I wrote yesterday ( http://www.malwarebytes.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=9705 ). This was regarding some apparent bug that is redirecting my browser.

I did two scans that you directed. The first is a Hijack-this scan, and the

other is a mbam scan:
