Re: Multiple Browser Windows Opening by Themselves

It sounds like your machine is infected with spyware. The page below details
many fine products that might be able to help you. I personally prefer
Ad-Aware and SpySweeper.

About once a day I will be switching from one page to another when all of
a
sudden after a slight pause a new IE browser window will open and then
another and another...until they finally stop at about 70. I can't close
them as they will just continue to pile up more, I finally have to
restart.

I wondered if it could have anything to do with needing more RAM? I know
that I have the minimum that MSN needs to run.

Thanks for any insight...sorry if this has been asked before, I couldn't
find it in searching the files.
