How do I stop redirects when selecting a link in a YahooSearch?

When I do a YahooSearch and select a link, it often redirects to another link, often totally irrevelant. I then have to go to the "back" button, which will list the initially selected link as previously visited, select it, and then I finally go to the site I want. For instance, I just tried to go to a specific site about Tax Free Bonds, the result of a search. Instead it took me to a another site about doing Tax preparations. I look at history, it shows my site as previously visited, select it and I go to my site. This is frustrating.

  1. You need to scan your computer for spyware, because you have a hijacker spyware that hijacks your " back-space key", " back-arrow" & your web-browser. This is spammers trying to keep redirecting you to another hit on their site, thus with the big spike in hits, their popularity goes up on the web. I hope you have a good anti-spyware program. If not, down load(free) SpyBot Search & Destroy 1.4, then do a full computer scan, & your new program will prompt you to fix problem, and you do so. That program, with getting daily updates, & scanning once a week, has kept all known spyware off my computer, except some minor thing once in a while. Hope you get rid of that hijack spyware ,quickly.
