When i do a search , for anything, for ex. apple, and then all the different sites for apple come up on I click on one of the links, ex. apple.com, it goes to a totally differnet link. Looks like mostly different search engines that Ive never heard of, ex. marketplace.com.... I have ran a full virus scan ( AVG ) and spybot. Didn't work... Now what?

It's a browser hijack. SpyBot doesn't get everything. Try PC-Cillin. What's funny about all these programs is they don't offer every protection. You need a few of them running. PC-Cillin is a great program and so is spybot. BitDefender is also a good program. So, try all these and hopefully it helps. The worst case scenerio is that you have to back up everything and reformat or do a recovery. Hopefully you have your discs on hand for just an event. Sometimes it's near impossible to get the hijacks off. Since you mentioned marketplace.com as a hijack link, search google.com (if you can get to it) to read about it from different sources to see what you can do. The best way always is to study your problem to find the solution.
