    I'm not certain, but this may be related to Geri's recent post and BOBBO's recent post.

    Some additional information

    As of yesterday, the Internet Storm Center went to Yellow Alert and has some additional links. Internet Storm Center

    Microsoft has issued a security bulletin over this. Technet Security Advisory 912840

    If you use Eric Howes' ie-spyads, he has published an interim update to the December 27th version which should be installed on top of the current version (no uninstall prior to the registry merge). The update (download) can be found at BBR http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,15121689
