    Katrina is enhancing the high we're having , we're suppose to hit over 100F today , with the index to stay above 110 the next few days. Showers are slim to none. Its the "Dog days of August" ... come on cold front...

    You've already scanned for malware I suspect ? Look to see if these reg keys exist and delete them if they do. Don't forget to backup beforehand.

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\explorer.exe

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplorer.exe
