This is a relatively new pc. I haven't installed Norton yet, but I own the software. I'm going to have to hit the bricks and do some work. When I signed in on my Yahoo DSL homepage and hit the email option, this search page came up. Every time I tried to log into my email, it switched to this other page. Then I ran my spyware, and it still happened. I gave up, then came over here. While I was doing a google search for that "ex Mormon website", it happened again, several times.

What is really disturbing is that AdAware shows like 36 running applications when I run it! I'm buried with packing up this house, and I have never gotten familiar with the XP operating system. It's my fault, plus the kids go on websites that nail your operating system with nasty bugs.

I'm pinging Fl_Engineer, because he/she has a thread about this stuff, but I can't find it.
