Safe mode didn't work so I did a refresh.

That's when it got scary. Two pages came up one the mozilla refresh the other this one.

*This Connection is Untrusted

You have asked Firefox to connect securely to www.google.com, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.

Normally, when you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified. What Should I Do?

If you usually connect to this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue.

www.google.com uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown.

(Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)

If you understand what's going on, you can tell Firefox to start trusting this site's identification. Even if you trust the site, this error could mean that someone is tampering with your connection.

Don't add an exception unless you know there's a good reason why this site doesn't use trusted identification.*

Any Ideas this sounds like my computer has been compromised.

Hmm something does sound fishy here. Do you have an up to date antivirus? Try a scan with Malwarebytes antimalware. Just the free version should find everything. The pro is only for real time protection.

Thanks for the help.

I am using a different PC it's clear that the google search bar has been hijacked. I'm currently running a scan with the hardware you recommended.Hopefully I will be able to sort out the problem.

Worst case I will just re-install widows from scratch that's been my solution in the past .
