Error on Page & Login Issues, also MS Money 2004 problem

[Kevin]

Hello -

I began having a problem yesterday that I can't figure
out and it's really crippling my ability to use my
computer, so please help

I am (1) unable to login to websites (i.e. bankone.com)
or (2) I can login, but then I'm unable to access links
within that secure site (i.e. hotmail.com), and (3) I'm
having problems using Microsoft Money 2004 which I don't
know if it is related to #1 and #2.

In the first example, I type in the username/password and
then click the appropriate link to login and NOTHING
happens.

In the second example, I AM able to login, but then when
I click on a link such as an email in Hotmail, NOTHING
happens.

For the first two problems: on these pages where these
problems occur, there is a comment in the status bar of
Internet Explorer which will state "Done, but with errors
on page". This appears when the page initially loads and
then changes to "Error on page" when I try to login or
choose a link.

If I enable script debugging through "Internet Explorer -

Tools -> Advanced -> Disable Script Debugging" I get

tons of "do you wish to debug" dialog boxes on the pages
which I've tried. I think there's something wrong with my
computer rather than these sites as this occurs on
multiple sites since yesterday.

I also have a problem logging in with Microsoft Money
2004, I have to bybass logging into the passport features
and then when I try to enter any information into any of
my account registers, Money crashes. This problem came up
at the same time and so I don't know if it's related.
I've ran "repair" in Money. Without any changes.

I've only installed one program prior to these problems
cropping up which was the Pocket PC SDK for Visual
Studio .net which I've uninstalled without any help.

I'm quite perplexed, this seemed to have just come "out
of the blue". I am using Windows XP and Internet Explorer
6. Other programs include Microsoft Money 2004, Microsoft
Office 2003, Microsoft Visual Studio.net, Activesync,
Norton Antivirus 9. Oddly, Outlook 2003 doesn't seem to
have any problems logging into my 5 different email
accounts and downloading mail and such.

I've ran Spybot (with latest update), Norton Antivirus
(with latest update), and checked the Windows and Office
update (all up to date). I've tried turning on and off my
software (Windows XP) and hardware (Linksys WCG200)
firewalls. I've restored Internet Explorer security,
Privacy, and advanced settings to their default. I've
restored factory defaults on my Linksys Cable modem
(WCG200).

Any help?? I feel like I've done everything without any
improvement at all!!

Thanks - Kevin

Rule out parasites.

Try this: Tools > Internet Options > Advanced > Browsing
Uncheck the Enable 3rd party browser extensions

If this clears your problem then find out who the culprit(s) is/are with
these tools.

Let AD-Aware Scan your system for advertising Spyware
http://www.lavasoftusa.com

If you use a HOSTS file, beware of this new issue.
Ad-Aware has decided to include a new detection when scanning the HOSTS
file. This now creates a "Bad hosts file entry" in the log file generated at
the end of a scan. The best thing to do is to place a check in each entry,
right-click and select: "Add selection to ignorelist". Otherwise if you let
AWW "fix" these items it will trash the HOSTS file! Even if you have it
"locked" by [example] SpywareBlaster or Winpatrol. It does not return the
attributes and renames the HOSTS file incorrectly to hosts.

and:

SpyBot-S&D

p.s Reset the 3rd party browser setting.

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.
