Hi Experienced users,
I came upon this site while trying to figure out why all of a sudden some of the links on the websites which used to work don't work anymore. I don't exactly know when this issue began, but I noticed it only this weekend. I have already run Adware and Spybot programs and also the anti-spyware program which is provided by the internet provider as part of a suite of programs under the name Freedom (includes, Firewall, Pop-up blocker, etc) and is provided by Zero-knowledge. I have also run the Hijackthis software and created the log-file in a folder. Some of the links seemed obvious and I asked it to fix it, but the issue of links not working still remains. I have also run the commands "regsvr32 uromon.dll" and the rest.
Hopefully, someone can figure out what is causing this issue.
Thanks for your time.
Tadaka
