Recently I have been suffering a problem in that when I click on Google
search results, the response is slow and then I will be redirected to a page
with something like "searchgetfound.com" in the URL.

If I click the link repeatedly, I will "get through" and hit the correct
page.

I don't have a problem once I reach a page, and all subsequent links work
fine, and also if I type in a URL into the address bar of internet explorer
I have no problem either.

It seems the only effect is to slow down and redirect clicks to Google
search results.

I have run the usual Spybot, Ad-Aware and Microsoft Anti-Spyware tools etc,
and they have not picked up anything new.

Does anyone know anything about "searchgetfound.com" and how I might be able
to remove it?

Tanel.
