yea opera works very well also.. the only thing i really like about Avant that Opera or Firefox doesnt have is the fact that when u X it out, it doesnt totally close.. it goes down into your toolbar almost hidden so u can stay logged into things such as CAC :-D. i sign in once to all my password enabled activities in the morning and thats it for the day.. no pain in the ass signing in and out over and over. just a lil info and experience.

http://www.downloads.com .. download HiJackThis, run it... if you know anything about comps, you should be able to tell what should/shouldnt be there.. also go to... http://www.trendmicro.com run their virus program(free online). also other progs to use(dunno if mentioned) Spybot Search & Destroy, Ad Aware, The Cleaner, Spy Sweeper... also try running these programs in safe mode.. alot of things like spyware and trojans and such will not work right in safe mode, so you can delete them manually... also try typing in stuff in search like "free" "spy" "toolbar" "buddy" just everday spyware words you see.. and delete em..

Your probably trying to loose these favorites through the browser.

Find your favorites through the files and delete out the bad ones...

You said you used Microsoft's latest Antispyware program? That usually works great. You can try online virus scanners too. Trendmicro has one, and Pandasoftware.com works good too.

hmm, so that search bar thingy on your desktop just appeared?

I would try what William said, and see if that helps.
Have you checked your running processes yet?
