Auto fill is populating the field with unknown web
addresses. It is only one address and I am unable to
locate the source.
History is clean.
Temp. files...clean.
I have used an Ad/Spyware program and I am still unable
to locate the source. I have read a similar problem and
solution dealing with loopback files but I have been
unable to locate anything.

Help
 
Hi,
This is probably coming from the index.dat file in the History folder.
Free History Eraser from
http://smartprotector.com/eraser/free-history-eraser.htm will delete the
History folder (and the index.dat file) and a new one will be created when
you restart.
Or the History folder can be deleted manually:

On a somewhat related note, look over the security tips at:

Hope this helps,
Don
