Please help: Whenever I click a link to an article on yahoo home page, I get redirected after 2 seconds of reading...

This is driving me friggin nuts. It only happens on my computer and not my wife's computer. I am running XP and have been using myyahoo homepage for years.

Anytime I am on the yahoo home page and see an interesting article under Top Stories or Sports or Business by Reuters, I click to view the article which then appears normally. Then after about 2 seconds, the website gets redirected to "res://ieframe.dll/http_400.htm" which shows HTTP 400 BAD REQUEST.

I wrote Yahoo help and they suggested that I clear my cache/browsing history/etc...

The problem is still there.

What else could be causing this to happen?

When I tried to google for an answer, nothing came up.

Thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

I would suspect that you have spyware and/or a virus.

I have installed and run spybot and adaware without any spyware detected.

I then tried system restore to an earlier point and still no success.

Any other ideas........
