IE Automatic Run for Couple Hours

[Guest]

I do not know what software which I installed that caused this problem. It
might be a virus. The problem is IE will automatic run about couple hour. It
will invoke www.yxgou.com web site and bring that web page. I checked all
content in my system; I could not find www.yxgou.com that string even search
in the registry. Does anyone know what is the configuration in the registry
that will bring up the IE automatically?

Thanks
Fred

Frank,
Thank you for your reply. Yes, my system got the virus. It changed my
registry; my virus dectector did not detect it. I get the hijackthis.exe from
http://aumha.org/a/parasite.htm. Clean out the registry for those unknown
program. It is normal now. Thank again for your help.
