Bullwinkel J. Moose06-25-04, 12:20 PMsomethingCan you give a bit more information. where does this show up as a pop up or
as a full screen takeover or a home page takeover? You don't give your
operating system.
Reinstalling your os is that last resort not yet necessary.
Have you checket in "tools"/internet options and see what your home page is?
