I'm using the latest OS on a MacBook Pro using Chrome or Safari. When I click on certain links (surveys, forums, etc), instead of going to that website, the tab opens to "SHP Redirector" and then to a McAfee web site. How can I stop this from happening?
Thanks.

- Browser automatically navigates to previous pageI have been facing this issue for long now. Chrome and Firefox (not safari) browser automatically goes back one step, to a previous page. This happens very frequently. Example:I visit example.com - browsers goes back to new empty tab state. Then I have to go forward again to go wherever I was. I transit from example.com to example.com/a-web-page - the browser takes me back to example.com (a previous page). This happens without me doing anything. Any suggestions what might cause this and how would I be able to fix this?System:macOS Big SurVersion: 11.2.3 (20D91)MacBook Pro M1, 13 1161

Might be McAfee itself...

Please run Etrecheck and post its full report here.
Use the “additional text” button below the message area and paste report in there.

Yes, malwarebytes. Problem is when I click on certain links, instead of going to that web site, it first goes to SHP Redirector, and then to the McAfee web site to sell their product.
