Links not working in web sites using IE 6.0

[jps609]

I am having the sames issue as amdm55, join date 4/2004. I can't open links within Internet Explorer 6.0. I am running XP Pro. I have tried using Spybot and AdAware6.0. Even though it finds files which I fix but that does not help.

In a previous article you suggested using Hijack. I am attaching the log file:

What would you recommend fixing?

Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated as it is impossible to do anything.

Thanks for you help! I'm desperate.

Close all (browser) windows & rescan with hijackthis. When the scan is finished place a check in the box to the left of the following entries & click 'fix checked' :

Reboot into safe mode following the instructions here & navigate to & delete the following if found:

Reboot normally after doing the above then post a fresh log plz.
