Sounds like you got a virus or some other malware. Download and install Spybot. Make sure you download the updates as well. Also get some anti-virus software. I recommend Avast. It works well and is free for personal use. I sure you'll find lots of good stuff. Another good one to run is HijackThis. It will tell you all of the add-ons and plug-ins that have installed into Internet Explorer. Usually the offenders are easy to spot. Lastly use a browser other than Internet Explorer like Opera, Foxfire, Netscape to name a few. My personal favorite is Foxfire. There are a few sites it does not work well with, but you can use Internet Explorer when you find them. Most malicious software out there is written for Internet Explorer. Because Internet Explorer is tightly intertwined with the Operating System it has the potential to do a lot of damage or at the least very frustrating. Good Luck.
I know things, things that could get me killed -
you are perfect. I install ad-aware. and it founds several unknown things. simply I delete them and change the web site in Internet options with mines. And it works perfectly.
thanks at all. -
make sure and use "spybot search and destroy" too. Why aren't you using firefox?
