Odd! Google looks different from 2 XP, IE6 machines

Hi, what could be the problem here?

I have 2 machines, same spec, (almost) the same software installed but...

When I view www.google.co.uk on both machines,

machine 1 shows the (normal) 'boxed' grey/blue links like this
[ Web ] [ Images ] [ Groups ] [ Directory ] [ News ]

machine 2 shows the 'boxed' links as ordinary underlined hyperlinks
that are slightly different!
Web Images Groups News More >>

Its like google is supplying 2 different pages!

I've checked my hosts file - there is no hyjacking going on

I've ran Hyjackthis - there appears to be no spyware going on

Not sure what to check next - Any clues?

I would have guessed that you have encoding different on your two machines,
but in trying out all the encoding schemes, I did not find one that changed
it. Maybe a Cookie that is set wrong ?

Thanks - It was a cookie causing the problem - deleted it - Now OK
