At random intervals during computer use, certain spammy webpages open such as www.drastic news.com and www.medic tales.com (I've broken the URLs so they're not registered by spiders). I'm running up-to-date Avast antivirus and Adaware anti-malware programs with frequent scans but neither have been able to resolve this issue. Is there any way I can trace from what program the command to open a webpage originates? The pages open in Firefox, which is my system default, so it's not IE related. As a workaround, stopping Firefox from stealing focus when a webpage loads, would also suffice. ---- Seans Potato Business 02:52, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

I would like to be able to click on any image and have all related web-pages come up. Is there any search engine or software (preferably free) which can do this, perhaps by image analysis? Clicking on images or copying and pasting image URL's usually yields poor results. Trevor Loughlin ( talk) 14:45, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
