Search Engine Roundtable: Adware hijacking Google Organic Results

Manipulated results

Early reports are surfacing about a spyware program that sneakily changes Google results for those with infected web browsers. The uninvited software appears to change or replace the display of search results, sticking in additional listings as though they were Google organic search results.

Some switched results appear to be sort-of-relevant links to products and services with affiliate relationships going back to a Quebec company called WebThisWebThat. Calls and emails to that company by MarketingVOX have not yet been answered.
