For The last few days when i click one of the tab here to read whats in it it sends me off to another page searching for diapers. Is this happening to any one else?:wallbash:
 
nope
 
Not to me either.

Are you using a mobile device or a desktop?

you might be experiencing an unwelome toolbar or other malware. something that sidecar-installed when you downloaded and installed something else, or a drive-by download perhaps.
 
Definitely sounds like some malware. Go get Malwarebytes, if you don't have it already.
 
I have mid size tower on my desk. I checked with malware and found nothing. Not sure how it's doing this but it's been doing it for over a week. Auto blank keeps popping up a lot too.
 
EDIT: Oh, try this first -- here are instructions for removing the about:blank malware:

If that doesn't help, check out my original post below:

Have you run a full virus scan with your antivirus too?

Also, try running adwCleaner (also now owned by MalwareBytes). It's better at cleaning up web browser settings after a malware infection:

If that doesn't help, try disabling all add-ons in the browser to see if the problem still occurs. If not, enable them one-by-one to identify which add-on is causing the problem.

Otherwise, try creating a new clean user profile and test with that.

Hopefully that will either fix things or identify what is causing the problem. :)
 
Thanks for your help.
