    Bah... let me read the thread better before posting.

    Have you run Spybot Search & Destroy?

    *cough* use the search engine *cough*

    ...but seriously, give microsoft antispyware a go. It could also be that a site you visit redirects you. At the shop where I work we have a problem with something which changes all of the new pc's start pages to gingerbread.netfirms.com (or something) even though every PC in the place is clean.

    If you want constant PC APPS freezing and crashing, give microsoft anti spyware beta try.

    Otherwise, check to make sure your WINDOWS HOSTS file isn't replaced. Or IE's default Search Website isn't a porn website.

    Microsoft Antispyware works perfectly for me, even though its a beta, but I dont have it on all the time, just leave it to auto-scan every so often.
