browser redirection

I just had a problem with some malware or spyware
redirecting me through another site before it reached
yahoo.com. I used Adaware and Spybot (both are free) to
delete hidden registries items and suspicious directories
and files. So far that worked. (Before you use them, read
user reviews to see which one is better for you. I also
deleted then reinstalled Explorer. The only thing I
haven't been able to correct is my graphic images missing
from some pages because the View--Encoding won't stay set
on Western European Windows, which is best for viewing
graphics.

Good luck. Sounds like you've been infected.

PEH,

Read this article and make sure that you have all the required .nsl files
and that your registry setting is correct.

Pictures Are Not Displayed on Web Sites in Internet Explorer
A Web page may display an image as a red X, or a placeholder may appear in
place of the image.
Covers also this problem: Web page that is encoded for the Western European
(ISO) code page might not display any images:
