Wait to install the updates until we're done. Which should be soon, just not yet.

Regarding the IE link/address issue, how long has this been going on? From what I've been reading, this seems like it results from having IE6 and IE7 installed side by side.

Please go to Start > Run and copy/paste the following, then press Enter:

C:\QooBox\Add-Remove Programs.txt

A text file should open. Please post the contents of that file in your next reply.

Next....

From where did you download these files?

C:\iPod Access\IPod Access 2.9.2\ IPod Access 2.9.2\IPac\IPODACCESS_SETUP.EXE
C:\iPod Access\iPod Access for Windows\iPod Access.exe

They're identified by Kaspersky as trojan downloaders. That may be because of the nature of the files, since I imagine their intent is to help you download music.
