Hello all,

Any help would be appreciated.

A program somehow leaked into my system and as soon as I connect to the
Internet (mostly) porn sites start running in my Windows Task Manager and it
adds various sites to my Favorites' list! Yes I know it may sounds funny to
you
guys, but it's really frustrating. Please help me get rid of this.

I am running IE version 6 with Windows XP Pro and I am using a Modem.
 
Try downloading and running Ad-Aware. It scans your
registry and files for spyware and adware then allows you
to delete them or quarantine them, much like an anti-
virus program. After that, go into IE properties and
delete all your cookies and files and clear your
history. Make sure your home page is set to something
more friendly also. Good luck.
 
Thanks a lot for your message, Adaware saved me.
