Default ie keeps re-directing

time-outs seem stupidly short, and always directs me to perfectnav.com.

looks like i've managed to get something installed on the pc that has altered the ie settings?

any ideas?

perfect nav is spyware... produces .cfm pop-ups..

Seems to come sneek up as a dns "error" every now & then, just hit refresh & it will **** off normally..

Your prob have Kazaa or similar P2P software installed.. get this here to clean your computer up you messy pup! lol! Ad-aware

Or just live with it like me!

Try it, you won't go back to IE
You will if you have a 6mb connection to the 'net and a 3ghz PC - it's actually slower than IE !

Oh and try spybot-search and destroy as an alternative to adaware
