Hi there.
Every so often (like once every two minutes) a popup appears in my default internet browser, regardless of whether it is currently open or not. It is always the same few sites, the main one being
searc-h.com/normal/yyy65.html
I have run VetXP, E-Trust PestPatrol, Lavasoft Adaware, Spybot Search&Destroy, and Registry Mechanic, all of which tell me that nothing is wrong.
I'm not quite so sure, so I ran HiJackThis. Could someone please check my log to see if something can be done about these annoying popups?
Thanx in advance.
