IE6 Navigation Problem

[Bill]

Each time I go to a new site a blank box gets thrown down
into the bottom taskbar that says about:blank Microsoft
Internet Explorer. When I right mouse click on it and hit
maximize it opens but is completely blank with no task bar
at the top, i.e. refresh, home, search, etc.,

Thanks,
Bill

there has been a problem with web surfers visiting www.webforhumans.com and
not having a popup blocker installed or clicking on various links at that
page which changes their home page in Internet Explorer to
www.about-blank.biz and to remove the bugs it installs requires the use of
HijackThis which can be found at:
