Google Search Redirect

[evil lincoln]

Hello All,

I've recently noticed an unusual thing going on when I perform a google search in my internet browser. I've noticed the message "please click here if you are not redirected within a few seconds" that appears briefly before the search results are given. Now the search results look different. There are only a few results per page and many times they are adds or not related to the search. Usually there is only one search result, related searches below that, then three or four adds.

I tried to clear out the browser data, cookies, etc. I also clicked on the "settings" button at the bottom of the google page and tried the blue "clear" button next to search history. Afraid I may have some malware, I ran the free Norton mobile app as well.

This is very strange because it only occurs when I perform a search. If I type an actual webpage I go to the real page.

I'm using a galaxy S3, uscellular is my carrier, the stock "internet" browser, and google as my default search engine.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

I've also noticed that when I perform a google search, the url string is incredibly long...

If I change my default search engine to yahoo or bing, the results look correct, and the url string is normal (http://www.bing.com/search?q=_____http://www.bing.com/search?q=_____).
