Forgot to add... when this happend there was also something that came up on
my screen it said " Current Security Updates" When I tried to close it out
it enlarged and took over my desktop. I've tried to replace it with my
regular desktop but it always comes back out on top.

I also ran SpyBot... removed the bad... still can't access the sites. I
tried downloading FireFox to see if that browser would work. I get an error
message: "The connection was refused when attempting to contact
start.mozilla.org" Am running Ad Aware now. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. I've an online biz that's suffering. :(
