I keep getting this message from my avast virus program. I always abort the connection, but I can’t figure out why I keep getting this. A message will come up just before saying it is coming from a website called strangepages.net. I have never been to this website or ever tried to access it. Can somebody please help me?
There might be some malware on your computer trying to redirect your browser.
First make sure you try a boot time scan with avast! Right click the scanner screen, select ‘schedule a boot time scan’ and reboot when requested. (Or open the tab at the top left of the scanner screen and select the boot time option from there.)
Then scan with these free adware/spyware scanners. Download, install and update before the scan.
SUPERAntiSpyware Free
Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware
When you have finished, check for out-of-date and insecure software and update- this will reduce the risk of similar infections.

Ok, I did what you suggested and I’m still having the same problem. Any other suggestions?
