- I'm using Windows Xp Home edition, and my browser is Internet Explorer v6
2) What exactly you`re trying to do and how you`ve been trying to do it
- view the Source (HTML code) of any page on the internet, by going to View > Source in Internet Explorer.
3) What result you`ve been getting - I've been getting around 9 new programs installed every time I click on it, saw it via Task Manager. All some form of a virus or adware, I believe. Definitely not a normal result of clicking View Source.
4) What exactly you`d like the program to do - I'd like View Source to operate as it should normally operate.
Narrative: My CPU seems bugged with a certain virus that is triggered by one event
alone. It's whenever I click on "View Source" in the VIEW menu of Internet Explorer. It adds around 10 new programs to the Windows Task Manager and slows up the whole system. I seem to be free of any signs of viruses though. My CPU is asymptomatic apparently. I just use "System Restore" to get my computer back to a useable state. Any thoughts on why this is happening? Norton Antivirus didn't detect anything as well. Thanks!
