Whenever I search for something, then click on a link I always go to the wrong page...like a site selling guns, or something similar.

This only happens when I am using Firefox (not Safari). I have tried search engines like Google and Bing...all will result in a wrong page link.

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

Thanks. I used Malwarebytes and it found nothing. I am still working on it.

If using the above listed scanners does not fix it or if you are blocked from installing those scanners then ask advice on one of the forums that specialize in malware removal mentioned in the Popups_not_blocked article.
