[jaws-uk] Re: Internet Explorer behaving strangely

Just a suggestion as it reminds me of a problem I had some time ago.

Go to View menu in IE, Explorer Bar and make sure that the Search item has
not been inadvertently checked.

  Hi Folks,

  Not primarily a JFW  issue but I'm at the stage of pulling my hair out!
I'm using jfw 4.5.1 with xp home. Which till this morning ran great!   Every
time I open a web page another  site opens with a list of  search results or
is someway connected to the title of the original page I tried to open,
e.g.:

  I try to open: www.holidaytruths.com
  only to get a completely different site  with a list of holiday search
results and  options.
  even    when I try to open
  WWW.whitestick.co.uk
  I get another set of search options for screens, readers etc. This is
driving me nuts!

  AVG states there is no virus in my pc.
  Add aware runs daily and pronounces the pc clear of critical objects.
  Spy wear blaster   is up to date.

  I even removed all cookies, temp  files, temp internet files and blocked
some of the problem  sites from installing cookies on my pc but the site
still managed to open in my internet explorer browser. They seem to
associate a word in the web site title and look for search options to match,
tried to open the national lottery site and got Vernons and other gambling
sites!

  Any thoughts?Any suggestions not involving petrol and matches would be
gratefully received!LOL!

  Alistair
