Hi,

That is a browser hijack. Essentially, it's randomly re-directing you to another site that you don't want to go to. This could lead to all sorts of problems. It can vary with anything from pop-up adverts and viruses to potentially stolen personal details.

You'll need to do a scan using MalwareBytes: AntiMalware which is free download from their website. This can detect and sort all of those nasties for you.
