Did you recently install/reinstall the operating system?
What virus program are you using?
Download the System Information Tool If using Vista/Windows 7, the tool needs extracted. Once extracted, right click on sysinfo and run as administrator.
If using XP, double click on the tool, then double click on sysinfo.
Allow this past your virus program and post the information back here.
Did you recently install/reinstall the operating system?
No the Operating System is the same one that came with the Laptop when I purchased it last summer. Its a brand new Dell insperon running Windows 7 Professional Korean edition (I only read a little Korean so it makes some administrative tasks difficult) Also I added an Ubuntu partition that I installed that myself last summer.
What virus program are you using?
I was using Avast at first. Then the problem started so I installed some others to try to find the virus. (AVG, Malwarebytes, Ad-aware) Also on my linux partition I have Clam AV.
Im going to try to uninstall some of them tonight but they were not on there when the problem first occurred.

Fludbucket,
I have a couple of articles that may help. The second one works for XP and Vista and probably will also work with Windows 7.
How to reset Internet Explorer settings
How to reinstall or repair Internet Explorer in Windows Vista and Windows XP
Some Web sites may not behave as expected in Internet Explorer
