Juda picked up a "malware for dummies book" Its a search bar of course its going to take you to its search page. This is not a hijacking or a spyware program, its a self installed toolbar. I would not recommend it but hey, its your computer.

self install during a virus attack - coincidence?

Can be self installed, but still classed as adware. Usually, this is auto installed by other programs
