Two issues:
Winspyware protect keeps popping up...I have McAfee Virus protection, but I can't find the Winspyware as a program on my computer to eliminate. How do I get rid of that?
Second, I go to open my web browser's home page, and if I type in an address and hit enter, the page disappears. If I sign for email and hit enter, it disappears. If I hold the control key down while hitting enter, it works. Is this related to the winspyware?
