David,
I have used Spybot and it did find a lot of junk I didn't know I had. I
have also used my AVG Anti Virus and found nothing.
I need to find out where IE stores the addresses and delete it.
Do you or anyone know where they are stored?
Lew

This is one of the approaches taken by some of the nasty "AdWare"
that's
out there. Odds are good that either Ad-Aware or Spybot
Search-and-Destroy
will clean it up (and probably catch other stuff you just haven't noticed
yet).
