Scary in an attractive mysterious sort of way?

Is that good?

Why the fuck does IE keep going to www.internet-optimizer.com/whateverthef ... hemainaddy whenever it can't get to a page? I've ran fucking spybot and AVG a million fucking times and it doens't do anything.

As you can see, this is fucking pissing me off. HOW THE FUCK DO I FIX THIS!?!?!?!?! :mad:

Try ad-aware. If not if you are running Windows 98 or below you could reinstall internet explorer. If you are on XP i would try to repair the installation...or contact my isp. Also try making a new user account, if it does not happen in that user account then it is a program playing with you. CTRL ALT DELETE in the new user account and find out what programs are running in the background, compare with your current and delete the ones that are not running in the second account.

If none of this works, let me know so i can think of something else you could do.

Penguin Josh · Post by **Penguin Josh** » 1/17/2004, 7:18 pm

it won't let me go to any search engine.

I have another question, when i download and instal netscape it doesn't work after the install, what is wrong.

It wont let you go to a search engine? I'd run a virus scan/adware scan before you do anything else. They often can screw things up like that. Especially adware.
