Kazaa is most likely the root of your problems or you got spyware or virus
from kazaa. Get rid of that junk. If you must steal copywrited material, try
winmx.

Sounds like spyware or a home page hijacker.

Run these tools weekly

You may want to try running a spybot scan, because junkware may be at
the root of the problem.

I'd say that you're better off sticking with Netscape. Overall, Netscape
has a better security track record than Internet Explorer.
