Something got mysteriously downloaded on my computer which
makes my Internet Explorer experience a lot more miserable.

It screws with my homepage, bombards me with pop-up ads
and slows the Internet down tremendously.

Any idea what it might be and if there is a way I can get
this junk off my computer????


Thank you....

Steve,

If you find out let me know. I have the same problem with
My Search attaching itself to IE. It brings in stuff from
searchexe.com. I tried to contact them but on response.
