    I downloaded some printable coupons the other day and it must have installed something on my computer....
    So after that, I noticed that there has been weird things happening in my browser...everytime i click on the search results of the keywords I googled, it goes to a different website, mostly ads...

    So what can I do to fix this problem? Do i install a spyware, adware???? how do I remove that thing thats causing the problem...
    thanks in advance!

    kaspersky anti virus is really good at protecting sites. You may also try anti malware programs that are built specifically to remove such issues,

    if you cant fix it this way I suggest you dont use the net, as it code be a password stealing program. Take it to a good PC repair place. The one I go to uses about five or six different programs as they say that any single program can easily miss various varieties of viruses.

    If you think you have malware.. You can use malwarebytes.org. It's free to scan and remove malware.
    and there's also Spybot: safer-networking.org and adaware: lavasoft.com
