Google? Whats Happened To It?

[piggynose]

i cant get google like i used to. Instead i get something called Searchgg-Custom Search, which doesnt include images.

this is only happening with firefox, no problems with googlechrome.

Have you changed your default search ?
Or has some malware been installed that redirects your search ?

no problems for me on Firefox.

You might have been hacked/virused/malwared.

How to get rid:

Download and run Malwarebytes.

After about 14 days it will pester you to take the premium option - just tell it no tanks and you'll still have the free edition.

i just ran malwarebytes, it couldn't find anything.

Try uninstalling firefox and then re-installing it.

Click on your Firefox settings and there will be a facility to change the default search page.
I always use Google. When I use work PCs they all default to Bing which I find almost unusable

It is malware.

You are being redirected to Searchgg.

Here is how to remove it.
