In what way does the searchmagnified.com website manifests itself?

Is that searching via the location bar or otherwise?

In the address bar. If I type in urladdress.com instead of going to url it takes me to searchmagnified.com. I have google set up as my search engine and home page.

I tried those with no results. On further experimentation the problem has stopped. I have no idea, but it is working currently. Thank you for your help.
