I keep getting re-directed away from the site I want to view to one that some tt has embedded on my PC with a virus. How do I stop it re-directing?

Have you ran AV/Spyware scans?

If so, and nothing appears - then download and run HijackThis - then post up the results here, and someone can tell you what to delete.

AVG Anti-Rootkit? Spybot? Windows Defender?

Can you post the log up from hijack this, give people an idea of what is running on the system, what is starting up in the registry, services etc.

Have a look at your hosts file. Might be something there.
