SELF MULTIPLYING INTERNET EXPLORER PAGES.

[Cool]

Hi there!
I find contributions here quite helpful and i encourage
you to keep up the work.
Pls, there is this problem i have encountered severally in
which for no apparent reason to me , internet explorer
pages just begin to pop open uncontrollably that the
system has to be switched off.
I have several systems connected to my network and use
vsat.
My OS is WIN2000 and use internet explorer6.0 service
pack1.
I have run antivirus and antitrojans to no avail.
I use norton antivirus with latest updates and have
installed service pack 4 with all critical updates.
So , what could be wrong?
pls help.
Thanks!
Cool

Thanks for your contribution.
But this has happened with about 6 different computers,
not just one.
So, i doubt it being a problem of sticky keys!
Thanks!
Cool
