Joe/Elmo,

I installed and ran the Malwarebytes software. It found a bunch of threats,
including some trojans. Everything seems to be working properly now.

Thanks for your prompt reply. I will run the program regularly now.

That's great! Thanks for reporting back.

I tried

but when I
click the download button it says "Internet Explorer cannot

I'm running XP Home and IE7, and have performed a full system
scan with AVG.

Try a couple of spyware programs then:

Malwarebytes© Corporation - Anti-Malware

SuperAntispyware - Free
