I am no longer able to get my complete home page to load.
On some of the screen it will say action cancled and in
others is will have a link, but just a box with an x in
it. The only way tha I sometimes know what it is is to
hot the mouse over it and look at thge address box at the
bottom. My home page is MSN.com. It is affecting more
that that also; for example, CNET.com. The whole tope of
their site like where it says downloads just has an ""X"
in a box. I an sure that my computer is being effected by
some kind of addware program, but it seems to be working
in the reverse. Any help or ideas would be appreciated!

Clean your Temporary Internet Files (Folder).
If still no joy then have a look at this page for other issues.

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

If still no luck then you may have been hacked by a new T3 BHO parasite.
