236516 2004-05-14 06:26:00 It looks like you have contracted spyware. Have a look at this information (sarc.com) on Symantec's website. Adaware and/or Spybot may also be able to remove it. tommy (2826)
236517 2004-05-14 06:27:00 that sounds like one of the earlier adware/spware.....hotlinks????. adaware/spybot should remove it. tweak'e (174)
