Internet Problems

[kpowell911]

I'm having huge problems on my internet on my desktop. its almost as if my internet has been taken over by advertising! I have this problem mainly with search engines. lets say i search for cliosport.net. The first thing that comes up up is obviously this website, but when i click it, It will go to something different, usually to do with casinos or bank loans!

Now i know the site works, cause i can acces it on my laptop but this happens to me a good 70% of the time!!

any ideas?

thanks

failing that you might be better off just doin a reformat, and making sure you have the correct software installed that will prevent you getting any s**t on your computer to stop it happening again =0)

And use Firefox2 if you are not already, IE6 has taken a bettering this month.

Aye, just dont use the Fizzle extension, or if you have got it installed get rid of it asap.

It is being exploited by malicious people to conduct script insertion attacks.
