The problem that I am having is that Internet Explorer
starts up whenever it feels like it. I have no idea why.
Internet Explorer is opened in the background, unknownst
to me. After a while I may have 15-20 Intenet Explorer
windows opened at a time. This uses up a lot of space. I
was wondering if anyone else hase seen this problem? Will
re-loading Windows 2000 eliminate this problem?
 
Check your system for "hijackware":

HijackThis (http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/hijackthis.zip) is the
preferred tool to use these days. It will help to both identify and remove
any hijackware/spyware. **Post your files to

Also update your virus definitions and then run a full system scan. From
now on, do both daily
