strange delemma

[Erwin Herbst]

I click on URL on a certain page, and instead of opening
the proper page, I get something www.errorplace.com,and
that very quickly transfers its self to
www.linkexchange.com...
now, what makes this real strange, is that I have no
trouble manuvering the same pages on a different computer,
so I KNOW that the problem is NOT on the web page, but on
MY computer. I'm scraching my brain for over a week.
I've tried Norton Anti-virus... clean as whistle... tried
Ad-Aware.. clean as a whistle... I am stuped. any and all
ideas are appreciated. PLEASE email me

Erwin,

Download all of these utilities and scan the system.

Note: Spyware removers are rules-based and are updated very frequently as and when new malware is discovered. Therefore, update both of these tools before scanning, very important.

Lavasoft Ad-Aware - www.lavasoftusa.com
SpyBot S&D - http://www.safer-networking.org/
CWShredder : http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/CWShredder.exe
Online Spyware scan: Do you have parasites?: http://aumha.org/a/noads.php

Then, reset the 'Prefix' and the 'Search' preferences using this fix:

I did all, but to no avail. I am wondering if I can
remove, and reinstall IE 6.0. This is SO frustrating..
