Links don't display - redirects to click.linksynergy

[kaotik123]

So recently I began having a problem when I click on some links. Mainly affiliate type links. But I get the firefox error message that page could be found but it is trying to connect to click.linksynergy.
This happens on many different links, in all browsers.
I have cleared and reset my hosts file, scanned for viruses, searched registry for linksynergy, disabled all browser extensions/addons... but still nothing seems to work.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

sounds like you have some malware or a virus on your computer. if you have a virus scanner run a scan. if not, download a free malware scanner like malware bytes

did the scan find anything. some malware or virus may have modified some files like LMHOSTS. try norton power eraser to find out
