Regardless of home page/address, I.E. tries to find
(unsuccessfully) another site.

The info bar flashes "FINDING SITE:
badurl.grandstreetinteractive.com" for about one minute
then it shuts down.

Have checked my DSL connection/settings. System Restore
is ineffective and re-installing software didn't help.

Suggestions?
 
Check for Spyware:
Go here and follow the instructions:
http://aumha.org/a/quickfix.htm
Download all recommended programs in No.1,
Follow the instruction in No. 2 & 3 for using the programs. And there are
help & FAQ at the download sites of the programs.
It is a good idea to run these programs in safe mode. Instructions for Safe
Mode here:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=315222
Also turn OFF System Restore:
Right click My Computer > on the System Restore Tab > check Turn Off System
Restore on all Drives, Reboot. You can enable System Restore once your
computer is free of Spyware.
Follow through with preventative measures
