OK thanks. I've removed that entry, and uninstalled the ares thing anyway. Hopefully this works, thanks.

I dont recall installing it, or using it. Should I uninstall it and see if that works?

No, nothing specifically opens it up from that list. But I think that list is for when you are logged in to Yahoo mail, but I dont use Yahoo mail at all lol.

Ok that Kontiki thing has gone. When you say 2 anitvirus programs, is the other one Avira Antivir?

Ive tried to turn off the shortcuts, but I cant find any option to turn them off.

OK I'll do that now, thanks. Do you think it could be anything to do with the keyboard? As in the shortcut keys, to jump to email/internet etc? As when it is opening Yahoo Mail, it says on the bottom of my monitor 'Launching Email'. Which is what happens when I press the shortcut key for email.

1. What browser are you using? The latest IE version. 2. Does it happen only when you are connected? No, it still opens but is unable to load the page. 3. What happens if you do not press any key at all? Then it is fine. 4. When Yahoo! Mail opens, are you signed in? No. 5. Does the page look like a genuine Yahoo! link or does it look like a hoax? Yes it is genuine. 6. What happens if you keep one instance of the Yahoo! window or tab open and continue with your work? It just keeps on opening more tabs. The problem is it doesn't open them in the background and allow me to carry on typing. Each time it opens I have to cross it off or click back to what I was typing. I currently have 7 tabs open just from typing this message! Any advice is much appreciated.

Hi Goku, Thanks for your reply. I've just uninstalled everything Yahoo related and rebooted, but it hasn't worked.

Hi again! Sorry to bring this up again, but the problem has returned! I have followed the steps as mentioned above, and before running each step I have updated each program/downloaded the latest one. However this time it hasn't changed anything, whereas last time it fixed it straight away. So does anyone know why it wouldn't work this time? Or if there is anything else I can do? Just typing this post Yahoo Mail has opened 11 times :(

No this hasnt worked, it wont let me access the BIOS menu at all, could it be a hard drive problem?

ok thanks, i'll try that tonight.
