THanks for the fedback, running the latest version of IE. I happenned to be
downloading several midi music files that day. I was uninstallin an
application (Roland Sound Canvas, during reboot, adware told me that an app
was tryinh to modify my reg but I allowed it because I thought it was the
uninstall program updating the reg. I am simply reboooting when this happens
and not running anything, minimal load at start-up, I will rty a safeboot
and re-run all my tools and see if I can trap something. Not too optimistic
right now,
THanks
