IE 6.0 with SP2 Spyware.

[M.Sajid]

Dear all,

I am having a problem with my IE 6.0 on WinXP Home. I will be grateful if
any one can help me out in this.

Whenever I start my IE after some time all of a sudden a large number
(approx. 40-50) of browser windows start appearing 1 over the other on my
computer. This has happened quite a number of times.

A few days back I had installed ad-ware and I noticed that I have spyware
with the name of MSBB.exe. I deleted this manually and also uninstalled the
ad-ware program. My system ran smoothly without any problem for a few days.
Now I do not have the MSBB.exe file in my computer but still my computer is
giving the same problem.

I also have Google toolbar to block unnecessary advertisement.

I will be looking forward for your help.
