wierd problem with browsing

[mpooley]

Hi
just recently installed vista ultimate 64 and been ok for about a week.

this morning i open opera browser and find everything a bit wierd - main thing is that if i click a link it goes to the page and then immedietly reverts back to where i was - sometimes this happens so fast that you cant see it - other times page stays up a few second before dissappearing!

really strange thing is that its identical in IE !!

also accessing the internet from my laptop is fine so its not my router
also wierd is that i can send and recieve emails from my main pc but not browse ?

I have not changed anything today exept my printer ownership when i found out i coulnt cancell a print job but thats all- it was working fine last night.

Oh btw i havnt got round to installing any antivirus yet as this machine is only a few days old.

please someone help me if you have any advice it will be appreciated
thanks

Mike

Just taking a wild guess here, but any chance there is a key stuck on your keyboard?

Check to make you haven't been hijacked already with a browser redirector.
