    This is not the same as the issues described over at Malwarebytes. Regardless, compatibility issues between KIS and Malwarebytes should NOT result in being redirected to a totally different site.

    To start, make sure you are not being what I call "click-happy" on unsolicited links, downloads, attachments, and popups. Instead of clicking on links, enter the url directly into your address bar and see if you are being redirected.

    I would also clean out the clutter with Windows Disk Cleanup or CCleaner. And of course, make sure sure Windows, KIS and Malwarebytes are fully updated.
