To Echo: I do use Norton Antivirus and regularly update it. I downloaded
AdAware and while it did fine some problems, removing the problems didn't
solve the problem. I also downloaded Spybot S&D - again it found problems,
removed them but didn't fix the problem. Today I saw something about a site
called AumHa.org and from it downloaded CWShredder. I guess it looks for
something called CoolWeb Search - but didn't find anything. I did try your
last suggestion - tinyrl.com/4pg7l and I see kind of a log of many problems
but I don't know what to do with it. I didn't see anything directly related
to my problem. Any other ideas?
To Bill Dilworth: I'm sorry, I really don't even know what a dual screen
mode is. I assume it is a setting?
