Google search?

It could be what's called a webpage hijacker. If you know what you are doing
download a little file called Hijack This! from the Internet and run it and
see if there are any unsavoury browser hijackers on your system. Use it
carefully and don't delete anything you are not sure of.

Try Spybot Search and Destroy version 1.3 as well to see if that comes up
with anything.

A hijacking entry may have been placed into your HOSTS file that redirects
the google domain over to the porn site. I'm not sure of the most efficient
method to check and/or correct this. Perhaps someone else can give more
detailed instructions?

I have the same problem and it's proving a real bitch to get rid of. Every
time I search for anti-hijack software I pages of porn sites.
