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!
