Using a different computer wouldn't make a difference because this is happening on a per computer basis. Just as an infection would happen, but I've finally figured out it's not even an
infection at all but instead some kind of sneaky advertising gimmick run by the search engines.

Really? The way I've seen this thread going I would say 17 people thinking the OP has a virus/trojan/spyware/malware infection when in reality he's trying to inform you about Google advertising selling the traffic from your hard earned listings to the highest bidder. But no, nothing to see here, keep blaming your complaints on the tubes!
To tell you the truth, I'm glad no one knows wtf I am talking about because that just means this advertising method hasn't taken control of a wide range of surfers (yet). I'm not sure how the fuck I got opted into this but it's definitely total bullshit and it's very effectively stealing traffic the top results for any search term people people want to purchase traffic from. Take a moment to understand what I made this thread for and realize what I'm trying to show you and you'd realize this has absolutely nothing to do with my computers or websites being infected with anything at all.
I installed an opt-out plugin from google.com itself and this has went away for me, is that so hard to get?
