More: This may be caused by a third-party program (adware, spyware,
parasite).
Get AdAware and SpyBot and run them both. Keep them up to date.

Thank you.
Unchecking the "Enable 3rd party browser extensions"
helped.
I went ahead and downloaded your suggested tools.
I do have another symptom that seems to be spyware --
When I open certain pages (normal pages like Netscape) I
get a login prompt with a password. Of course, I don't
furnish one, finally get to the page but with a header
that says: "Not Authorized to view this site"...
There are many different pages that I get this, however
the tool doesn't seem to fix this symptom - any other
suggestions about this?
