Unfortunately, I wasn't browsing the same site as before... in fact, I only had excel open to print some lecutre notes, with no IE in sight!
I'll run that browser hijack program as soon as the antivirus has finished
I was wondering if it was a newish backdoor thing that hasn't been identified yet.. what are the DDE and MCI windows, anyways?
Theere was also an MSN-messenger style query window open with no text in it. I read somewhere some viruses use these to get in, because the ok button at the bottom of the query window can be clicked to allow access to others.
HOWEVER, weirdly enough - I don't trust messenger at all, so have my firewall block it whenever i am not using it. at the time the weird events i have described occurred, messenger was closed and supposedly blocked by my firewall. yet ten msn-related windows suddnely popped up!
