Go Search Results Page Corrupted

Whenever I type the Go Keyword using IE6 I am taken to a www.xpsn.com
search results page instead of the Microsoft search results page. I have
uninstalled IE6 and reinstalled it and I still can't get my go keyword to
work properly.
Can anyone help? I am frustrated big time! Thanks.

Joe,
xpsn.com = commonname.com (known parasite)
This one is fairly new, so I don't think Ad-Aware\SpyBot detect this yet.
But it never hurts to scan your system anyway .....
Then finish up with Hijackthis (see below)

Mike,
It worked like a champ! Thanks so much. I never realized spyware,
parasites, etc.. had become so much of a problem. Thanks again for your
help!
