When I am at my desktop, and try to open my
homepage, and get online, it will work that
way, if I am already online and try to get
to my home page, it will not load.
I have run a Trend, Micro scan, All O.K.
I have run Scandisc, and Drefraged.
I ran Spkbot, and I found a couple of ??
and got rid of them.
I ran Adaware and found some ?? on my compu-
ter, But Adaware would not delete them, it
just hangs on the deleting part.
I also get a message from Zone-Alarm to let
it open a Salm.exe, but I can't find it om
my computer.
Any help would be appreciated
Thank you BillytheKid

run ad-aware se in safe mode as salm.exe is spyware. check your msconfig/startup to see if in there & uncheck it's box. download & run ccleaner from ccleaner.com to clean the crap out of windows in safe mode this time but normally in normal mode. possible to manually delete salm.exe if know location
