When I close a window another one pops up that has about:blank in the top left hand corner and after that started happening when I open a window I see Finding site: run.once.msn in the bottom left hand corner I have never seen that before also when I click on a picture link instead of going to that site it opens a blank window that I can't close I have to restart the computer to close it. I know about blank is a homepage hijacker but I am not having that problem but worry that it could start happening or something worse will. I have tried Mcaffe, XoftSpySE, SpyEraser, RegistryBooster, RegCure and Micro Trends House call (which brings up a trojan worm_rbot.ezd but cant get rid of it. anytime I search about:blank alls I get is sites telling me to download another spyware program which I have enough of now and since this isn't hijacking my browser I thought I would try a forum and see if anyone here knows what this is and how to get rid of it.
