im using windows xp, ie 6..all of a sudden, when you type in an address that doesnt exist, instead of going to auto.search.msn.com, it ends up going to global-finder.com, and before that something called true-counter.com. how can i get rid of this? do i have a worm or virus? is anything going seriously wrong? thanks.
