I am currently running Xubuntu 12.04. I have noticed today something different about my computer. Whenever I browse the internet, my browsing will occasionally be interupted by a redirect to a website called adfly. My adblocker, as well as extra plugins designed to thrwart the redirection don't work, as the intrusive ads do have a "redirect" option, supposedly to redirect me to where I wanted to go in the first place, but it ends up redirecting to google. So far, I haven't found any information on how to remove the malware from my linux system.

I seriously want to strangle whoever had the balls to make that ad program....what was he thinking?!
