Hi:
My Internet Explorer 6.0 browser has been infiltrated
with spyware and adware software. This has changed the
toolbar and links on my IE browser and it's causing a lot
of popup ads to appear when I surf the Internet. At one
time it was even causing keyword searches in the IE
browser to be diverted to a little-known search engine,
too.
I utilized the Aluria Spyware Eliminator software and it
removed a number of spyware files, but my Internet
Explorer browser is still not back to normal.
I tried uninstalling Internet Explorer through the
Add/Remove Software feature in Windows XP, but despite
the fact that IE no longer appeared in that program
window, I was still able to browse with IE 6. I've since
reinstalled IE 6 through the Microsoft Web site also, but
the IE program still does not appear in the Add/Remove
Software window.
What do I need to do to get this spyware out of my system
and get Internet Explorer back to working as it normally
should?
Thanks.
Jim
