Total-scan.net is a bogus security site that shows fictitious system scans to make its viewers believe that they have infections and threats in their pc and that they need to remove these computer infections. These fictitious system scans from total scan are followed by popups that promote Security tool.
It is already known that this Security tool antivirus is a fake virus and spyware protection software. Fake antiviruses are characterized by bogus system scans, constant popups and browser hijacking, which may explain why you may be constantly redirected to the rogue http://Total-scan.net site. Examples of other fake antivirus protection software are the soldier defender virus and vista antispyware 2010.
Do not consider paying for the license key that the Total-scan.net promotes to you. The bogus antivirus protection software that it offers will not get rid of viruses, trojans and other malwares in your computer.
Consider using a safer browser such as firefox. You may want to read this article on how to get rid of Security tool: Security tool removal
