Suddenly I get a pop-up ad everytime I open IE. It has
nothing to do with the homepage that I use. I tried
putting my homepage as a restriced site and it will not
stop it. Any ideas? Your help is appreciated.
 
I had the same problem. I was able to remove a bunch of
plugins as per the following (next page) and this seems
to have worked.

shawn,
The first thing to do is to scan your system for the possibility of
unknown\unwanted spyware or parasites that may be causing your problem(s).
