Google results on IE7 get hijacked and redirected
I recently installed IE7. When I run simple Google searches, I get the usual list of results with the corresponding URLs at the bottom of each line.
When I click on some of the result links, IE7 does not go to the URL shown, but to some other search engine or website that tries to provide more results. Sometimes it ends up at some page that makes no sense at all. If I copy and paste the result URL from the search list into the browser header, I get to the correct web page.
Any inputs on what is causing this these other engines to hijack the links and how to eliminate this behavior is appreciated.
Thanks,
