IE7
 

When using the internet other sites appear on my computer without me
requesting them. If I log on to a particular site and then close that one
down, other sites have come on to the computer. I have checked my security
setting and cant find a way to stop them. Thank you. Ron.

So How Did I Get Infected Anyway?
For quite a few people it's by installing programs like Messenger Plus,
whose ads for malware don't identify the malware as such and try to convince
you that you owe it to the author. See also:

Don't ever do a "default" install of anything. Always choose Custom and see
what else is being carried along. Don't install any extras you're not sure
of.
