IE 5 Search Activates Pop-up Windows

by rcvnm . Updated 24 years, 9 months ago

Each time a search is attempted using IE 5, it activates pop-up windows that continue to open until it disables IE. The History, Cookie, and Temp. Internet folders have been cleaned out yet it continues each time a search is attempted. These windows are always from the same sites so I am inclned to believe my IE search function has been hihacked. This PC is used by several different users so it is possible that someone was browsing a site they shouldn’t have been browsing or opened a hyperlink to one or more of these sites. Even POP UP Killer was disabled by these windows! HELP!
