I think you might be right. I'm back, humbly, to say that my machine
isn't as clean as I thought. A new virus has cropped which causes a
new IE browser to launch and take me to an advertisers page when I
click forward / backward or links within the current page. I now
realize I may need to rebuild this machine but that is my last
resort.
Action taken so far: Ran McAfee in safe boot mode (nothing found);
cleaned some junk using HJT; rebooted but the problems persist. As I
type this thread, characters are occassionally missing but I type
pretty well; I think something is stealing my characters or slowing
down my PC. Help... See HJT attached below.
