| | Re: Problem: See Attached Spyware? Looks like a browser hijacker. You could try the usual anti-spyware scans (SpyBot S&D, AdAware etc.), delete your temporary internet files from IE, reset your browser start page etc..

| | RE: Problem: See Attached I can't see the attachment, but if it says Firefox cannot find link...etc., that's normal with Firefox. If you click on OK on the error to close the message or just wait, the link opens fine. Solution is to open Firefox first.
