Within the past week, I noticed I couldn't access some of the sites I usually visit. I eventually found out this was because I had an IP address in a much different location than where I am currently located (at least 1000 miles away...). Consequently, I tried to figure out …

A friend of mine IM's me today and tells me IE, though closed, will run a pop-up every minute or so. Initially, he tried downloading something from limewire and I guess he tried to get the wrong song or something like that. His start menu and task manager wouldn't work, …
