When I try to connect to websites I frequently get the following error:

r23.overture.com/d/r/?xargs.. and a whole string of gibberish

This means that I cannot access many sites

How do I stop this happening?

Hi ATT

I suspect that r23.overture.com/d/r/?xargs and the string of gibberish is linked to a web page address.
and you getting the error because the the address is incorrect.
Do you get this when you first open your browser.
If so open your browse and go to tools and select options or Internet Options if your browser is IE
Now check to see if your Home Page address is correct.
If this is incorrect you are most likely suffering from a spyware problem.
If you are being redirected to that address when browsing then again it could be spyware.
If you suspect it could be spyware could you
