We have one computer on our network that has several
addresses in the IE6 address bar history when you click
the down-arrow. One of hte other ones is ?u???????u???
D?. It has happened before and it went away for a short
time after clearing history but it seems to come back.
This is running on a Win98se box, Gateway, peer-to-peer
network connected to the web via DSL through a
firewall/router box. Running Norton AV 2003 and Zone
Alarm Free 3.7.202.

What could be causing this? How can it be stopped? Any
help on this is appreciated.

Thanks for the info, Henri.

Can't get into the board to post, or register, but managed
to use a couple spyware programs (Ad-Aware and Spybot S &
D) that I use on my computers at work and home. Cleared
the computer of it's history, cookies and temporary
internet files. Hopefully that will take care of whatever
was causing that.
