Bruce, is there a possibility that more was done then just a sp install?
The symptoms you are describing sound very much like a tampered with host
file.
A host file can be used to "filter" popups and advertisements by basically
having the browser look back at itself for the images, rather then download
them from a remote server. Microsoft has taken to storing it's image files
on servers that also serve popup and ad advertising, which makes the use of
a host file or other webfiltering technique a little dicey.
