Hello ^^

I'm having a problem since yesterday with my browser. When I'm e.g. go onto a YouTube-Video then there is sometimes a part of the title marked a as a Hyper-Link. When i click onto it it opens up a new Tab with Yahoo serach and the word marked with a Hyper-Link.
I realized the same on other websites and it's anoying. I got another problem, that when i search something in the URL-line it shows up that it searched with Google for a second then it redirects me to Yahoo. When i go back one page im back on Google.
And the last thing is when i e.g. R-Click onto a YouTube-Video i normaly want to "open in new tab" but it opens up automatically in a new tab and on the tab where i R-Click, ad popped up with ad for games and pornographic Websites.

I've used AdwCleaner btw.

Someone had simular Virus and knows how to fix it? I don't want to completely reset my computer cause I probably gona forget to safe important data.
Sorry if my english was hard to understand. I've tried my best ^^'

Looks like some type of adware, have you looked through your list of installed programs for any unknown applications?

Does the virus just send you to the real Yahoo? Can you identify/detect any websites associated with the virus?

It's the real Yahoo search thing. Malwarebytes found "www.liveadexchanger.com", "www.reimageplus.com", "search.mpc.am", "srv7.admedit.net" and "ssl-cd.com".

It probably installed bundled with some installer of a 3rd party software

Tested it like 3-4h+ today and that thing didn't came back. Why don't I think of reinstalling at first ... Thanks for your help! I realy appreciate :)
