IE Invalid Syntax
Everytime I try to select a page to open in IE i receive 2 messages. One box pops up and reads Internet Explorer Error. The next box pops up and reads Internet Explorer Invalid syntax. It will not open the website. I have also tried to search in Firefox. I do not get these messages however after a few searches, I get some sort of virus or spyware pop up saying I have to clean infected files. I immediately logged out. Please help. I'm so sick of these viruses!
