Multiple Iexplore

[kais]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion (More info?)

I have a problem with multiple instances of Iexplore loading on my Win98
system. Most recently I have tried to run ScanDisk but can not because an
application keeps accessing the hard drive causing Scan Disk to restart.
When I go to Task Manager, I have 10 instances of Iexplore running. I run
Adaware and Norton Internet Security on a regular basis.

Check for Hijackware

When all else fails, HijackThis
(http://aumha.net/downloads/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to
use. It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware.
