Hello! My default search engine is google.com but it feels like after I type a query in the search box, I am redirected to some other page. It just doesn't look like the result of a Google search.

Except a few sites, my browser is always showing this error message. It wasn't happening before but recently I turned off the automatic Windows update because it was time consuming. I have noticed that this problem has started to occur after turning the windows update off. Is this some kind of a precaution, not to open certain websites? Is their a potential virus threat on these websites?

I recently got myself a Kinect for my Xbox 360. I was wondering if there are any other uses for the Kinect. I saw in a documentary that the Kinect could be used alongside a 3-D printer to reproduce anything that is scanned. Can anyone help me in finding out to do this?

I use Google chrome more frequently than any other browser and that is why I set it as my homepage. But recently I downloaded something from Internet and now I go back to my original homepage which was Google Chrome. Whenever I open the browser, it takes me to some page "websearch.it" something and I have changed my homepage by going in the settings so many times but whenever I open the browser, the same page opens.
