    The last few days, when I go to some websites my freaking MS Office Installer pops up and says its trying to install??? I ran both adaware, spybot, norton anti-virus and trend online with zero results. Is this some kind new kind of weird virus?

    The web site may be trying to use a freature from Office that has not been installed.

    Just to be on the safe side.

    Please follow the steps below:

    - Run ALL the steps in this Sticky thread READ & RUN ME FIRST Before Asking for Support

    Make sure you check version numbers and get all updates.

    - Very Important: Make sure you tell us the results from running the tutorial...was anything found? Were you unable to complete any of the scans?...Were you unable to download any of the tools?...Did you do the on-line scans as suggested? etc.

    After doing ALL of the above you still have a problem make sure you have booted to normal mode and run the steps in the below link to properly use HijackThis:

    Downloading, Installing, and Running HijackThis

    OK, I went and ran all of the following and Im still getting this problem. I have screencapped it so you can see. Perhaps someone can go to that site and see what they get.

    Tests run

    AdAware, Spybot, Microsoft Anti-Spy, Trend Mirco and Bit-Defender. All of these came up clean. Then I ran CCleaner after that I went to the website as indicated above, and you can see the result.

    Nevermind, fixed it myself by putting in my Office CD and hitting repair.
