Google Search Being All Weird

Maybe I am infected with something, although all the links seem to go to the right places.

 

I was on the beta version but downgraded to: Version 39.0.2171.27 m

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks

 

EDIT 1: MSE says "Preliminary scan results show that malicious or potentially unwanted software might exist on your system. You can review detected items when the scan has completed." - eek!

Well, I hope it really has found something as it might explain the fact I can't drag and drop using the right mouse button!  It drags slightly, then left clicks somewhere through the drag and starts dragging whatever it clicked on or draws a box.

 

Perhaps I should give Malwarebytes a whirl too.

 

Will update here just for closure.

All good now :)

Obviously it was one of those things that was doing it.

 

More to the point, I wonder how long they had been installed!

 

I have not had a shredd of malware on my system in a couple decades...or close to it.  I do periodic scans of my system anyway just to be safe.  Would probably be a good idea if you did the same. :)

 

Also, use a couple different programs to scan for malware.  Not one will detect everything.
