Having a wee bit of a Google issue....(SOLVED) Recently, my desktop google from my house has been a little bit weird.. First off i noticed the font had changed, the Shopping Tab is gone, and if I press "MORE" it just reloads the page?!?!? Also at the bottom of the page where you change page is also different I use chrome so tried a different browser and it was exactly the same!! I checked the url for a dodgy redirect but it was fine Ive also noticed that Chrome keeps me logged in but google.com(.co.uk) keeps resetting my preferences every time i visit. And my security settings are all ok. Even instant results is not working despite being set to "Always on" and having a fast stable internet connection.. My laptop at work, same OS, same Browser, same details is absolutely fine... Any Ideas?? Things Ive done: Switched it off and on again uninstall Chrome, reinstall chrome Full Virus and Malware scan Logged out of Chrome and back in cleared cache\cookies
UPDATE: Solved.... I checked my internet options just to make sure I wasn't somehow connected to a proxy, and in the LAN settings I had this (http://localhost.world/localhost.local) deleted and set to autodetect, et viola!!
viola hehe voila in any case what is that local host anyway?K found this thread http://www.tenforums.com/antivirus-...107-google-redirection-localhost-world-3.html
oh.. will check back after work when i get home and hope its not persistant.... did a few restarts last night and it seemed to stay away..
