Chuck on Spybot
http://fileforum.betanews.com/sendfi...spybotsd14.exe

And the latest updates
http://www.spybotupdates.com/updates...d_includes.exe

And run a scan. Sounds like it could be an IE hijack.....firefox is cool, but the tabbed browing sometimes get a bit annoying when you close a window then realise you've lost about 15 different pages you had open. Does anyone know if this can be turned off?

You can go to tools/options/advanced and there's an option under tabbed browsing to warn you when you attempt to close a window with more than one tab open.
