Jack,
Thank you for the assistance. The requested reports are attached. There is also a screen shot of a message generating when first opening IE. IE works once those are closed.

Kaspersky did not find anything, hence the lack of a report.

 

[LandonH]

The aforementioned screenshots.

 

[Jack]

Did you reset Internet Explorer settings as seen on Step 5?

 

[LandonH]

Yes, I did.

 

[Jack]

Can you please run this file from Microsoft: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/ie_performance_and_safety/en-us

 

[LandonH]

Completed. The messages are still populating however, and I am having difficulty posting the result report.

Can you please go to the Add or Remove Programs feature and remove the Yahoo Toolbar and see if this will fix your problem.
