I have some kind of virus that is not allowing me to run active x scripts to do an online scan. Every time I open IEexplore Norton pops up with SP.DLL infected in c:\windows\temp but this file does not exist on the drive. My homepage is being redirected to blank and even if I go in and change it when I check it again it is right back to blank again.

I have scanned across my home network with
norton with the latest def files, and online with 3 different scanners and all turn up nothing, ran Spybot S&D and ad-aware and both found some spyware, and norton will actually scan now but.

Whenever I load Internet Explorer, I get this about.blank and a website directory.

If I type anything in the address bar it will go to that site sor a second and then back to about blank. Not giving me any time to do anything

Please help with maybe a setting that will allow me to discover what infection I have.

PS. RB Killer will not run either.
