Roxxy,
Any further on this? My brother in law has just reported a similar sounding issue to me. Have you been able to find out more?

yep, after being on line with microsoft for 2 hours and finally giving up. I ran some virus softwear and deleted cookies. I can;t remember what all else but I can play any game now except on msn. I still don't know why.

have either of you installed a) pop up blockers b) firewalls c) ad filters, or any kind of software designed to "protect you from the nasty stuff on the Interenet?

Yes.
I built the system I'm talking about and stuck all of the above on when it was built. I also disabled access to the internet for the kid's account when the system was set up. The only things I'm regularly using now that I wasn't using then are Firefox/Thunderbird, and Microsoft's Anti-Spyware, but a full version of AdAware Pro should cover that attack vector reasonably well.

Personally, I've haven't had an infestation since I switched from IE to Firefox and got hidden behind an ADSL router with a firewall in place.)
