Both MSN and Internet Explorer Search Functions Do Not Work

[Stephen]

Both my MSN and Internet Explorer search function do not
work and only return blank pages. Any ideas on what's
wrong? Thank you. S.

Without more specific information about your system, it's hard to tell,
but you may have been infected by spyware/malware hijackers. First, be
sure you have a current, updated antivirus program running at all
times. Second, download, install, and scan with Spybot Search & Destroy
and/or Ad-aware. Those are free spyware removal tools. Be sure to
update each of them before scanning. It is useful to scan for spyware
in Safe Mode.
