Hi Barry,

Sound suspiciously like you have a spyware or malware
problem, especially if your Home Page has been hi-jacked.

Have you run Spybot or similar lately?

George.

Subject: [access-uk] Odd behaviour of links

Hi all

I'm using Office 2003, Windows XP pro and JFW pro.  For some
reason beyond me, my computer has developed some odd
behaviour when trying to follow links to email address' in
messages and on the net.  If I enter on one of these links,
a new page opens in, I think, a Word document, although Jaws
just says it is *Untitled message*.  I used to enter on one
of these links and a new email message would open in Outlook
Express.

It might be coincidence but I am also having strange
behaviour when connecting to the net.  Instead of opening in
the specified home page of Google.com or following a link
from my favourites, the net opens in Internet search.  The
address bar says it is the page I want.

I will be very grateful if anyone can sort out either or
both of these problems.
