Suddenly my IE6 (Ver 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_qfe) randomly opens a window for
new URLs that I didn't specify. Last one loaded was
http://frisco.go211.com/azactionsports
Tried restoring system to earlier restore point, but system would not do
it. Symantics full scan shows no problems.
HELP!

Hi,
See these sites for help, including the posting of a HijackThis log to one
of the forums where HJT logs are analyzed:

The Parasite Fight http://www.aumha.org/a/quickfix.htm

Dealing with Unwanted Spyware and Parasites:
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm

Removing Malware:
http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/...moving_Malware

Partial list of forums- there are others:
http://forum.aumha.org/viewforum.php?f=30
http://spywarehammer.com/simplemachinesforum/index.php
http://www.spywarewarrior.com/index.php
http://forums.whatthetech.com/forums.html
http://www.thespykiller.co.uk/index.php?board=3.0
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/
http://forums.spywareinfo.com/

You will have to register to post to any of these forums and should look for
one or more "Important- Read this first" type messages, at whatever forum
you choose, for specific instructions.

Hope this helps,
Don
