redirects in IE 6.0

[JT]

I have been having a problem in IE 6.0 where I am
redirected to a site called Search Almighty (it's related
to igetnet) when I use the control + enter shortcut to
type a web address or when I use the down arrow in the
address window to go to a page on that list. No matter
what the address says, it's redirected to this search
engine.

Really frustrating, any ideas?

TIA

JT

Problems: May cause IEXPLORE.EXE to hang whilst shutting down. You will also
be unable to contact the real auto.search.msn.com and search.netscape.com
directly whilst IGetNet is installed due to the Hosts file alterations.
"Enter Keyword or Web Address her" in the address bar.
