Unknown Favorites

[Vee]

Each time I launch IE there are 4 favorites in "my
favorites" list that I didn't put there. Each time I
delete them they come back. They are as follows:

Gambling
Pics of the Day
Privacy
Teen Photo Galleries

I am NOT interested in any of those things. Please help
me get rid of them once and for all! Thanks.

Hi,
These favorites are being recreated by a third-party program (adware,
spyware,
parasite)

Work through the solutions (CWShredder, Ad-aware, Spybot) at
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm Also note the security tips on that
page.

Additional information at:

Hope this helps,
