Hello, I am not a computer techie and I have some questions about my PC. I think it is not working as it should. First of all, it works very slow. I suspect that the problem is associated with my Internet browser. I am using Google Chrome – and i have noticed that my default homepage, which used to be Facebook.com, has changed to some suspicious search engine. One time I accidentally entered Facebook.com url into the search box as I did not see where is my mouse cursor pointing. It showed me search results, so i clicked on the one that said its the Facebook page. Surprisingly, I was redirected to a completely different website! Can you tell me why this is happening?
