I'm working with a Gateway laptop running XP Pro that was infested with
Spyware/Adware. It also had a couple viruses. Everything seems to be clean
now, after running Spybot, AdAware, Microsoft's Spyware Beta, and 2 or 3
other programs. All scans come back clean. I also did an XP boot to
CD/repair on this drive and the browser worked fine when still in SP1 mode.
As soon as I updated to SP2, the browser problems came back.
The problem specifically is that if I type in www.yahoo.com, the browser
will automatically put www in front and either .org or .net behind... so it
would make it www.www.yahoo.com.net or .org. I also cannot browse network
shares when this happens.
I would appreciate anybody's help on this.
Thanks.
