Ad links keep appearing in browser back button

[mpkthecpa]

i just followed the steps on another malware issue i was having

link

the issue with the malware was resolved but now i have more issues.

ISSUE#1
i am able to navigate the web on internet explorer. however, for many sites that i visit, when i click the "back" button, nothing happens. i usually have to click it twice to actually go back.

so i looked to see why, and i right clicked on the "back" button to see what previous sites it would take me back to, and the first site listed is a link to an ad (not the same one every time).

ISSUE#2
on most sites that i visit, i now see various "page cannot be displayed" areas on parts of pages. there will also be red x's on certain ads on various pages. why is this? is it normal?

ISSUE#3
I actually feel it's taking longer to load up sites than before the resolution performed above. did some of the programs i installed during the resolution cause my navigation process to slow down?

can you please help to resolve. thanks, much appreciated.

maybe you better ask tetonbob in your hjt thread about issue one, just to make sure that you are free of malware

I have exactly the same problem, have XP pro sp3 IE7 (was the same with IE6) have run McAffee anti virus, Ad-aware and Spybot, all run error free, and still get exactly the same symptoms as MPKTHECPA.
