Hi. After a fresh installation of windows XP pro, I stuck with a google page on my pc that doesn't produce results at all. It gives me all kinds of insignificant results.
For instance view what happens if I type IBM in my google: not one head office in there...only stupidities..


If you are not convinced that it’s wrong, type IBM in your google and compare....


So what have I missed this time? What setting should I try? I guess I’m not searching the what??

Thank you very much for your time

Go get firefox and try your search again. Based on the JPG you posted, looks like your IE got hijacked by one of the many malware out there.
 
Do you have any AntiVirus software? If not, then you definitely need it.
 
What about clearing the Google Search History, uninstalling and re-installing any Google Toolbar?
 
Hi guys.

since it was a fresh windows install and I heard the word Malware...., I ended up re installiing windows again. took me a few hours but now it's working fine
thank you again guys, this place is the best.
