Unable to type anything in IE Sessions

[Viki]

Hi,
I am facing the really stiff issue with ie on my machine. I
am not able to type anything in any of the text boxes that
appear on the page. I am not even able to type in the URL.
It's like my IE doesn't like my keyboard anymore. I am
having to use netscape. Besides, once i open a browser I am
not able to close it.

Is there anyone who can help me sort out this issue then
please email me. Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Viki

Check IE> Tools> Internet Options> General> Accessibility> User Style Sheet.
If it's checked and you didn't check it, you've been infected with
Datanotary/CoolWebSearch.
Go to http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html for CWShredder.
Let CWShredder remove anything that it finds.

Less likely, but it could be some other spyware, parasite program. Run
Ad-aware and Spybot:
Dealing with Unwanted Spyware and Parasites:

Also note the security tips on that page.

Also possible:

Hope this helps,
