What the heck?! Porn search bar entry I didn't type...?!?
I'm the only one who uses this computer. Today, I found a search bar entry containing 3 words that one would use for a porn search (not repeatable). There was no website on the history, just the search bar. I absolutely did NOT type this, nor do I look at porn. I ran my scan but I don't recognize anything unusual. I thought you had to manually type something in the search bar for something to be there but for sure I did not type this. Any ideas as to what is going on? I'm pretty upset.
