Ok, I was browsing on some site or another, and all of a subbed I got about 12 pop up windows. I tried my best to close them all, but it made me have to recover my active desktop. At this point I decide a reboot is nessesary. When I do I find a new program in the sys tray, and four new entries in MSCONFIG. That's not even the worst of it. Now every time I hit the stop button on my browser it redirects me to their site. Has anyone encountered such a problem?
