Hello,

Please help me.
When I click on certain links for ex:
http://www.anyaddress.com/support/2b0c4a98e28420d3f437bed9e96984f2

The browser goes crazy. It starts like this:
http://cgi/redirect.cgi?param=1&dru...252Enet%252Fsearch%252Ephp%253Flg%253Den%2526
continues in infinitum with symbols like this:
252Fsearch%252525252525252525252Ephp%252525252525252525253Flg%25 along with
that horrible clicking sound and doesn't quit until I, click the stop
button.

I ran 3 antispam programs. All of them were fine.
This started during the time I was trouble shooting dsl connection problems.

Don't have a clue on what to do.

I appreciate any help you can give me.

Gwen

Run a /thorough/ check for hijackware, including posting your hijackthis log
to an appropriate forum.

When all else fails, HijackThis v2.0.2
(http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware with
assistance from an expert. **Post your log to

http://forums.subratam.org/index.php?showforum=7,
http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=30, or other appropriate forums for review
by an expert in such matters, not here.**

If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this
isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, reputable and
independent (i.e., not BigBoxStoreUSA) computer repair shop.
