Hello Mr C. Last night I downloaded the latest windows updates, KB890830 malicious 
software removal tool and KB950749 security update.

Much to my surprise, when I loggen on tonight I found a msg on the screen that said 
that the malicious software removal tool had found a problem and removed it. It said 
it was  Trojan:w32/alureon.gen. I never heard of that one before. Anyway the yahoo 
pages seem to be working normally again and I was able to load the games that had 
their .exe altered.

I went ahead and disabled SearchAssistantOC from MS ActiveX Control anyway. I havent 
done anything with the regedit info you sent. Do you think I should do it anyway? 
So far, everything is working well and normally. If the Win update actually did solve 
the issue I still want to thank you for taking the time and effort to help me. Y'all 
provide a much needed and appreciated service and I thank you immensely. I think 
it takes a great deal of knowledge to troubleshoot someones PC problems over the 
net
