Getting redirected to MSNBC.COM

[Steve Ogden]

In the past couple of days, I've found myself often
directed to MSNBC.COM when I click on a link. It doesn't
matter what site I'm on, or which link I click. And it
does seem somwhat random. These links are not related or
linked to msnbc.com in any way. It's as if the browser
has a mind of it's own. I've never subscribed to
anything as msnbc, or set it up as a home page. Also, my
browser doesn't want to 'let go' of the msnbc site: when
I click 'BACK' in IE6, it stays on msnbc. Almost as if
there's a virus. My Norton anti-virus & internet
security is up to date. Any suggestions on what to look
for?
