Everytime I type an internet address in my windows xp,
something puts the address to
http://ehttp.cc/?
www.ati.com/support/faq/agchipsetdrivers.html

I then type the address again i.e. www.ati.com etc., and
it works.

Can anybody tell me what the //ehttp.cc/? is for and how
do I get rid of it???? Please respond to my email
address as it is very frustrating.

thanks

First eliminate any scumware.
See
Dealing with Unwanted Spyware, Parasites, Toolbars and Search Engines
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each need to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded.

If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem please post back
in the same thread.
