Have you run your anti-virus program?  You might have a trojan/trojan dialer that keeps going through it's cycle because you have yet to remove it if your spyware tools have yet to uncover the culprit.\n\nCheck your add/remove programs for suspicious programs (i.e. Fast Search, Active Alert, Bargain Buddy) and remove them **DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK**...this is NOT for the novice user.\n\nHave you checked msconfig for any nasties? ***DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK**...this is NOT for the novice user. \n\nNeed more info to give more info.\n\nGood luck. :)
