    I checked again and the same thing occurred. I came back to my pc and I saw something that seemed to be a program installing itself on my pc. Any help is greatly appreciated. I used ad aware.

    Hi,

    Those are just cookies, your log looks clean. In Internet Explorer options you have cookie options such that you can deny certain cookies. Click Tools > Internet Options, and go to the PRIVACY tab. Here you can raise the level of cookie privacy :)

    I have my privacy settings to high, but I had something that looked liked it was a program installing itself on my pc, and that is when I preceded to scan using ad aware. I still get the same thing. Also, a link to a search page keeps reappearing. i deleted it using hijack, but it came back. So, I assumed it was something else. Thanks
