Hi All:
My problem is that when I am using my IE6 Browser and click on BACK to
return to the previous web page, I have to click it about three times before
it takes. I noticed that at the bottom of the webpage screen
http:\\ad.doubleclick.net/....etc... shows up when click on BACK and that is
not where I want to go. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Patrick
 
Click the downward arrow to the right of Back button and select the page to
which you want to return. The others are ads which were blocked by WinXP
SP2's Information Bar/Pop-up Stopper.
 
Hi Patrick :-)

You may have a hijacker on your system causing the problem. Be aware, there
are many types of scumware that your antivirus and some removal tools cannot
detect or remove. Therefore, use the programs as described in the
instructions here. Some variants can continue to replicate themselves each
time your computer starts up if not properly removed.

When all else fails, HijackThis v1.99.1
(http://aumha.net/downloads/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware. **Post
