Hi Vin,
You helped with a problem before and I'm hoping you can again. I can no longer type in an address in the address bar and go to it. I get a message saying make sure the address or path is correct. It is! i can access the pages from my favourites menu, or by using a search engine-I'm using Dogpile. This has happened since I downloaded Firefox and then tried using IE. Firefox does the same thing Also every time I run spybot the same problems keep coming up-common highjackers and DSO exploit. Spybot does not seem to be able to remove these. Can you please suggest something that would?
Would these two things be connected?
Thanks for your time
John

Welcome Back... Try Ad-Aware ..... Also considering that the same thing is happening in IE and Firefox then I would suspect that the malware is affecting Windows rather than the browsers, in this case run the Trend Micro Housecall online virus scanner from Nethomehelp's front page to check for viruses that your installed virus scanner may have missed.

Hi Vin,
You are a magician and i am not worthy. I have done as you suggested and the amount of crap Ad Aware has removed from my system was amazing.
Its running much faster now and I thank you greatly.
I am not worthy
But thanks
