    OK, I suppose we should be glad it isn't a Trojan, although it might have been an easier fix.

    Now, do me a favor, try pasting a link to that page into a post here and see if I'm being picked on or not. :D

    Thank God, it not just me! :D The BB seems to be truncating the url for some odd reason.

    Thanks.

    An update on "Internat.exe "
    My friend just e-mailed me.
    After renaming that file, as anyone would expect, when Netscape opens, it says, it can't find "internat.exe ". After closing that error message, browser starts as usual. I still need to find out if an icon for "internat" is present in his taskbar.
    Now my question is: when Netscape starts where does it call some files from? Registry (I asked him to do a search there)? Prefs.js?
    This is probably crucial here.

    Next update.
    This is some more info sent to me by my friend:
    " I have the program INTERNAT.EXE in TWO places. C:\Windows\System and C:\Windows\VCM
    I renamed BOTH of them to INTERNAT.OLD

    The icon is not in the taskbar when it "looks" for the program

    INTERNAT* search in the registry came across nothing.
    just for fun I did " internat " and came up with this:

    My Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Doc Find Spec MRU (I think this is something to do with the search b/c some of the other things listed are things that I searched on)

    My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VersionConflictManager\Files

    MyComputer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VersionConflictManager\Files\internat.exe (should be a space at my computer but wanted it to be one long line for you.

    there was another one similar to the above example with the search. "

    A minute ago, I received an e-mail from my friend: CASE SOLVED.
    Couple of days ago, I asked him to rename that "internat.exe" file to "internat.old ". First time, he restarted Netscape, and IE, they both asked for that file, but ONLY ONCE. After that no more error messages, no more "En" icon in a taskbar.
    It's been like that for couple of days, so he seems to be OK.
