No it doesn't. I assume it's a browser problem, try downloading Firefox from www.mozilla.org and checking your site.
Then, download Spybot and Ad-aware (you can find both at Xtreme Freeware) and clean your pc from all spyware and malware Internet Explorer so gladly brings to it.

Please - writing in all upper case does not give you more attention or better help to your problem, it merely makes us think that you have mistakenly hit the caps lock.

I am glad that you have located the problem and hope that you will be able to clean it off your computer. Good luck.

Getting rid of IE for most browsing will really go a long way to avoid spyware. Resized Image

Another nice thing to do is to get a "hosts" file that blocks most malware servers. Choose one (or combine many...) from here, here or here. Spybot can do that for you too, ask it to perform all profilatic measures...

If you really want to keep IE, at least download Hijack this

Heres a nice all in one package you can try, it really does seem to be quite good. I'm actually going to give it a rty and see how well it performs compared to Norton Products. What I like is the Web Content Filtering for the daycare, definately caught my eye.
