I don't usually have add-ons. I always remove them if something is downloaded. The toolbars and extensions are all from Microsoft or Adobe.
I deleted all my search providers except for google. It still didn't work.

I use firefox or opera for what I would call outside the norm sites.

still use IE for some of my core stuff, but social sites n stuff I only used a 3rd party browser.

Do the free MS malicious software live scan. It might just find something bad and then it will remove it. It takes a while to find it on the web site but it is worth the effort.

I know, seems stupid and ironic at the same time...... But I was seriously thinking, "how can I google what's wrong, when it's google that isn't working?"

Now that I think of it, I haven't had an anti-virus scan since June.....

I just don't feel like paying the $50-$60 every year...

Ive used every virus program brand there is, free and pay, and done so since windows 95, and after a while I would uninstall them for a variety of reasons.

only had avast for a few years now but a few years is amazing, I usually dump them within 6 months and usually for eating up all my gaming power or beign to intrusive.

Only bother is yearly they make you send a request for a new program unlock code. But its free.

Ya, but everyone who's anyone uses Google.

Wait, you use Internet Explorer and Vista, and can't figure out why you are having problems?

Let me guess, you've got a dial-up connection too?
