59 blank error web pages open when I click on email link

[Guest]

I use Office and Windows XP. If I click on an email link from a web page to
email someone, IE hangs for quite a few minutes and than starts opening up 59
blank error web pages (page cannot be displayed) and then it gives me an
error message to the effect that my email client is not set up for this.
HELP!!!

Hi Elk Meat Lady

You likely have some form of malware or other scumware on your system that
is causing this problem. Work trhough the information here to fully clean
your system:

Dealing with Unwanted Spyware and Parasites:

Be aware, there are many types of scumware that your antivirus and some
removal tools cannot detect or remove. Therefore, use the programs as
described in the instructions here. Some variants can continue to replicate
themselves each time your computer starts up if not properly removed.

also....

When all else fails, HijackThis v1.99.1
(http://aumha.net/downloads/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware. **Post
