Hi all,

Hope this subject hasn't already been "done" but I am getting desperate!!

For the last few weeks I have been unable to close all open windows (not
pop-ups) when using IE6 -including my homepage...The pc just "dings" when
clicking the X or selecting "close" and the only solution is via task
manager and killing the active windows.
I've read that Alt F4 should close them but it doesn't. I have tried a
spyware killer to no avail and am fully up to date with PC-cillin virus
protection.
The windows that "stick" seem random but is usually always my homepage and
one or two others that I have visited.
I have got Kazaa lite installed . Is this likely to be the cause??
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as my next step is a re-format
and re-install which I don't really want to resort to.

Cheers,
Mark

FIX IT LIKE THIS: 1. Download BHODemon here:
http://www.definitivesolutions.com/bhodemon.htm ...and
try that on for size ;^) THEN, 2. Download and scan, etc,
with Lavasofts Adaware (get it here:
http://www.lavasoftusa.com ) and weed out and quarantine those pesky little
demons... 3. Download and Run: SpywareBlaster.. get it
here:
http://www.spychecker.com/program/spywareblaster.html
....and don't forget to check out their very super-chilled
site, and thank them... those guys have worked hard
over the years (good people!). Alrighty... just had to do this
because I spent so much time... and for what?
Should've known better. What got me is you cannot find those
processes running anywhere in task managers, cannot
see 'em anywhere in your browser environment, cannot detect
them with standard personal firewall software so you
cannot tell they are busy doing their thing that way, and you will
not overtly know how to find this stuff in the
registry... its just really stealthy "gotcha-ware", and it just gets in.
Hope
this helps. I'm curious... I'd like to know how you
do... send me a quicky email or something. Thank you SpyChecker,
and you other adrioit thinking cool folks who helped
;^) Cheers, Twohawks
