Unfortunately that is specific to search engines. While that is one symptom, there are many other instances of the same (lack of) behavior. Some good stuff in there though. I'm thinking since I must leave this drive intact, that the easiest option is to get a 30GB drive off ebay (saw a couple at $60 or so today) and go with that. Having only partial web sucks. I mean the only good thing on the internet that works is this BBS! If anyone has any other ideas I'd still love to try them out. I just got out of my MCSE class and my instructor was stumped as well. Hence Micro$oft's solution to the problem - Reload. The spyware on here wasn't bad, some cookies, registry keys, then of course the search bar that my brother had installed was complete spyware. But again, it is not just search pages... that is just one good example. [sigh]
