Sorry guys but I need help. When I open my internet explorer, on any web page, when i clik the right mouse button, a menu comes up. Other than the normal opthions of refresh, print, etc... there is an option that says "<<<<<free porn galleries>>>>>>". I would appreciate it if anyone could tell me how to get rid of this option. Whether it be customizing the right mouse button menu options or wutever. I've been searching for hours on the internet trying to resolve this or figure a way but none help. thank you very much for your time and help.
