    I cannot seem to figure out what is the problem, first off, my mozilla firefox
    will not allow any search sites (yahoo,google,ask,metasearch) it will load the first page but after it will not permit me to search anything.

    My internet explorer just seems to launch it's self over and over again, happens about 40% of the time im browsing.

    Last my computer seems to run really slow now, not sure what program or whatever caused it.
    For countermeasures I used McAfee's Virus scans and firewalls/ Registry Mechanic/ CCleaner/ Ad-Aware and the virus scanner and spyware scanner found nothing, they are upto date as well. CCleaner and Mechanic didn't help either....? Any ideas on what may be the problem, any help :cry would be extremely useful.
