Also........

Download, install and run the programs below to ensure there are no
parasites, spyware, adware or malware on your system contributing to the
problem. Be sure to UPDATE the SpyBot and AdAware programs before running
them to be sure they have the latest definitions. Run them both, as they
look for different warez, thus, what one does not find, the other may.
