Hello,
I am having trouble with my Internet explorer.It is doing some very odd things.Sometimes it will completely close the page i am visiting for no reason or it will be very slow loading pages and when i say slow i mean very very very slow for eg i tried to google something and after 10 minutes of the page trying to load i gave up.I thought that it was perhaps the topic i was searching so i tried putting in random things to see if that made any difference but it didn't.Another problem i had was when i was on a forum and clicked on a link and nothing happened i tried to open a new tab and that wouldn't work either and it would let me access any options that are in my tools menu.i had to restart my computer.Just to let you know i have high speed Internet connection.Thanks in advance to anyone that helps me with this problem.

I suggest you run anti virus software as well as anti spyware software like spybot search and destroy and adaware.

Had the same thing. Spyware. I'd say you have trojans, a lot of'em. Either you find some very good antyspyware programs, or, well... erase everything on HDD and install it a new.

You do know the odds are very high you are having a discussion with a bot, right?

And both from the same IP. So I'm locking them both. I had been giving this one the benefit of the doubt since I couldn't see the point of this as spam (not that I see the point of spam much otherwise, but this one doesn't even have a website to go to). If they are genuine then feel free to drop me an email or pm and I'll open one of them up again.
