Strange Browser Behaviour

Hi

Every time I open Explorer and look at the history, there is a wierd entry
up first on the list identified by an apparently random series of characters.
The only page visited under this entry is "Cannot find server".

I've run several anti virus programs (AVG, Norton), and Ad-Aware and Spybot,
but nothing is ever found. My Zone Alarm firewall has not reporte anything
either.

Obviously this is a bit concerning, and I'd like to do something about this.
Any help greatfully accepted.

Cheers
David1966

Use Firefox. (www.mozilla.org).

You might try microsoft's beta anti-spyware program. It's free, and doesfind
some things:
