Search Engine

Thanks to this article


I was able to figure out a potential reason for weird tabs opening up and doing random searches.

I deleted all the extraneous search engines, and hopefully, the problem has resolved itself. The behavior was so weird, that I thought my browser got hacked...again. In fact, although I don't know for certain the true cause, with all the phishing and the spyware floating around on the net, it's easy to just assume that unwanted behaviors are attacks. However, that may not really be the case! Discoveries are exciting...if not somewhat dangerous.
