It sounds a little like a Hi-Jack, you know from a Trojan Program. I know it's probably far-fetched, but you should probably not rule it out. I've had strange occurrences happening on my computer lately. A program suddenly goes on for no reason. I think it's something to do with Microsoft's new downloads- I'm hoping it'll adjust and go away.Why would DEP shut down IE when I go to a specific web site without having changed any settings. This has happen out of a clear blue sky!! Any suggestions,commments?
