embedded porn search in internet explorer

[Bob O]

When using MS Internet Explorer, I will occasionaly get a
screen freeze up and automatically recieve porn look ups.
The only way to get out is to Cnt-Alt-Del to task manager
then end task. I have put many sites into security block
but new ones keep popping up.

You may want to research and download/purchase a spyware program for your PC
as it sounds like you have some unauthorized programs installed.

If you have KaZaa installed, this may be part of the problem.

Have Ad-Aware also StopZilla to detect, something
triggers the action only when I go to MS Int. Exp.

Bob;
Run an updated virus scan.
Run Disk Cleanup checking all boxes except "Compress old files"
If you have file sharing software such as Kazaa, disable it.
Check this link:
Make sure you have the most recent version of spyware.
Ad-Aware seems to have updates about weekly.
http://www.aumha.org/a/noads.php
Run Ad-Aware (free version) or Spybot to check for spyware:
http://www.lavasoft.de/ (Update if you already have it)
Or
http://spybot.eon.net.au/ (Update if you already have it)
