My dad calls me up because his Earthlink dial up+IE are not working correctly. I went to see the problem, and IE launches, but the first window is a Cannot find server error. Then, 2-4 windows pop up with a Puppyboyz.net/motor.htm address. this will not load either. The Home page hasn't been reset in the pref's box, the security has no "safe sites" listed, and in the 20 minutes of looking at it I can't find out why this is coming up. I'm going to bring ADaware se, and a mozilla to try to root out the problem, and get around IE to see if his connection is ok, which it should be, as his laptop works fine. Have any of you seen this thing or heard of it? He vehemently denies looking at anything questionable, but (edited for sensibility) . any help will be appreciated. Thanks, Joe
