Look at the fixes under "I" for Internet Explorer on MVP Kelly's
excellent site:
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_abc.htm
If the instructions look too complex, then take the machine to a good
local repair shop (not a BestBuy or CompUSA type of store) and have
them look at it. It's hard to tell what the issue could be from reading
your post and not being able to see the machine. Someone with
"hands-on" might catch it immediately. Unfortunately, some of the
nastier malware like CoolWeb Search and Look2Me requires more than just
running Spybot and Ad-aware. You could add CWShredder to your arsenal,
which you can get here:

Post back if we can be of further help, and good luck.
