Everytime I click on a link (url), whether in a forum or on google or
another search engine, the page begins to open, then freezes, and I
have to use task manager to close it. Sometimes I am able to open
the link by right clicking and opening in a new window, but that
doesn't always work or that new window freezes too.
I sent a log to TomCoyote forums, but just wondering if there may be
another problem. It seemed to be working ok until I used Ad-Aware and
Search and Destroy last evening.
Thanks.

That worked perfectly, Ramesh. Thank you very, very much! :)
I'm guessing I deleted something I should not have when I did Ad-Aware
or Spybot? Hard to know what to delete. : /
Thanks for your time!
