My IE shuts down whenever I try to load a page. Firefox endlessly tries to load a page (circle in the top right keeps rolling) but the status says "stopped." I'm using Outlook as a browser, but any pop ups, including the desired kind, close becuase they load as an IE window. I've run AdAware, CW Shredder and Search and Destroy. Any other ideas?

I've run Hijack this in safe mode, which seems to return a better result (including a process called "dukk.exe"). Otherwise it's the two processes at the end that keep reappearing whenever I restart.

Thanks!

Solved. Turned out it was a trojan horse. AVG Free killed it. Thanks to someone in another post who suggested the prtogram to someone who was having trouble killing something.
