Thanks, but did all this. I have Ad-aware, spybot, TrendMicro, Hijack this,
etc. I am thinking it has something to do with the Unicode encoding but I
can not figure out where it is coming from. I didn't have the "enable third
party...." checked so not that. And have not had a virus for sometime per
scanners. So.... any other suggestions? This is really annoying.

Something I read at MS (I think) and something I saw in my files or registry
(cant remember where) said something about IE and bho, obh, ohb, something
like this. And I remember seeing these three letters after a path with IE.
So maybe this is it? But tried to find it in registry but did not locate.
Anyone got an idea of what I saw??
