I am using win XP pro. all else checks out ok, I've run AD-Aware, Malwarebytes, and webroot and found nothing. I also cleared out all cookies.

this happened some time ago and somebody told me to shut down remove the memory strips,  replace them and start up again,  and  it seemed to work then,  but  not this time.
