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
