When using IE6, I click a file to download a new page
will open (http://www.best-search.info). In order to
download I'll have to right click and then save as...
I have run Adware remover; but it did not help.
What else can I do to get IE to give me the option of
save or open the file?

I can't go to any of the pages below. The http://www.best-
search.info page will come up. I try a different
computer in my home network and the same thing.
Any other suggestions?
