IE6 only won't accept URLs. I see only one URL.

Using IE6 I can enter any URL address (e.g. www.google.com) but always
reach the same webpage - www.bbc.co.uk.

I've tried ad-aware, Spybot and CWShredder but only reach this single web
page. It's driving me insane.

Can anyone help restore my sanity?

It may be a HOSTS file problem.
Look also for a file named HOSTS (no extension, could be hidden) rename it
OLDHOSTS.

If you did not create the file, then you may have parasites, or you are
using a web accelerator program that would be causing this problem.

AdAware and SpyBot and run them both. Keep them up to date.
