When I type an web address in the address bar, IE takes me to the site and
then gives me an error message that IE must close. However, when I click a
link to the same site from my favorites or from results from a search I can
go to the site just fine. This is happening with all websites that I type
in... Any thoughts?
 
Hi,
Sounds like the work of a hijacker, trojan, parasite or spyware program.
