Default Underlined Links in Web Pages

I see you already posted to OE General, so I need not point you in that
direction.

Hi all,

I recently noticed a whole lot of underlined links in every webpage I
visit. These are bogus links that just take me to some advertising site.
Annoying isn't the word for it.

I've done a little research and came to the conclusion that I have some
sort of adware or spyware on my computer. I ran Ad-Aware and it found
several critters, which it removed. But I could run Ad-Aware again a half
hour later, and it will find another one. According to Spybot, there are
no more spies on the computer, and according to Norton, there are no
viruses. But clearly there's something causing these annoying false
links. I upgraded to IE7 yesterday, naively thinking that would fix the
problem, but it didn't.

I'd sure appreciate some help with this issue.

Thanks for your help.

Danno
