Hey
Every now and then when I click the IE shortcut on my tool bar something crazy happens; it opens heaps of IE windows. Then it reaches a point, possibly because of all my alt+f4's and ctrl+alt+del pushing that they all just close down.

Now my comp has Norton 2005, and it updates regularly (I did an update the other day). i also have a spyware program, and the windows one, and they don't pick anything up.

Would anyone be able to explain this?

Thanks
Mitch

exactly. He must have too much time, not enough life.

I have Lavasoft adware, I don't think I have spybot though

Does it happen to just that particular IE shortcut?

Has anyone heard of Windows Defender Beta 2?

Is this an actual windows program???? I've never heard of it before.

Thanks

Did you actually do a full system scan or just update your virus protection.

Norton is set to do a full system scan every week I think it is. So yeh, I have done a full system scan recently.
