This morning, all of a sudden I went to do post something to a forum, and when I clicked submit, windows closed down all IE windows that were open. I tried posting on another forum, same thing.... and when I do searches on certain sites, clicking the submit button there does the same thing! In an attempt to fix the problem I went and changed my internet options and discovered that regardless of what I 'reset' for the privacy and/or content preferences to, when I click ok and then go back and check, it resets back to medium. I've run numerous scans and gotten rid of anything even remotely suspicious but the problem continues....HELP?!?!?!?

First eliminate any scumware.

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each needs to be updated with the program's update function
before every use, even when just downloaded. There's also a lot more to do
than just those two programs. CWShredder is also available here:

Alternative download pages for Ad-Aware, Spybot, HijackThis and CWShredder

If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem please post back
in the same thread.
