[AusPalm]

Can someone please help me with how to get rid of unwanted (sex) sites
poppin gup whenever I open IE 6? My son has obviously visited some sex sites

Your PC is probably loaded with spyware that is also hogging resources.

There is an excellent article about spyware in PC Magazine:

Their Editor's Choice is Spybot for spyware removal. It's free.
