Lately, my computer leads me continuously to the www.safe-site.com. What can I do to prevent that?

Sounds like your browser has been hijacked. Try the following steps to correct this issue....
Download, update and run Spybot---http://www.safer-networking.org/ . Don't forget to use the Immunize feature.
Download, update and run Adaware---http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/products/select_your_product.php
Run a free online scan from http://housecall.trendmicro.com/
Download HijackThis---http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/programs.php#hijackthis. Run and Save a Log. When you log comes up copy and paste the entire log at http://www.hijackthis.de/ . Analyze your results. You will then get a screen that will tell you if you have any nasty stuff in your computer. Follow instructions to deal with any nasties. CAUTION: This is a very powerful tool. Be careful.

Download antivirus and anti-adware software and run them on your computer.
You can get both for free here: http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1
Also, check to see if it is your default homepage. Go to tools, internet options, and then see what is listed in the address: bar.
