Favourites folder

Andrew

Everytime that i open my favourites folder these 3 links
to porn websites come up i delete them but they keep
coming back. Another problem is if i stay on any page on
my browser or im reading somenthing for some minutes the
page automatically changes to another site. Any help
with these two problems will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Check your system for "hijackware".

I highly recommend using HijackThis
(http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/hijackthis.zip) to identify and
assist in the removal of these bad guys. **Post your files to
http://forums.spywareinfo.com/, not here.**

Also update your virus definitions and then run a full system scan. From
now on, do both daily.

.
try right click on start, click run, type in msconfig, a
page opens, go to the start up tab, look through there for
your pop up ad and unclick it... just my thoughts... after
you do this, click apply at the bottom, then ok... good
luck
