Can I delete the Web Tool Options? Someone is rescripting my page
Exactly what I said. Someone is jacking my browser and rescripting pages. It was happening on IE. So, I thought I'd try firefox. In IE, I had all of these scripting dictionary activex controls, along with a lot of XML active X controls I've never used. I thought I might have better luck with Firefox. But I already had to disable a Microsoft Net add on I didn't choose.

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

Yes, thanks. I know about all of those.. but whomever is scripting my browser is also quite adept at scripting exceptions to programs. I just ran several different scans that came up clean. Yet, in a folder called "program data" I found exceptions to all. Malawarebytes was ignore.dat, superspyware was setupvars. For Windows Updates, there's a folder called wuredir. Every virus scan I've run comes up clean.. but I'm pretty sure all of the program files have been compromised. In the past 2 weeks, each of my laptops have had new hard drives and I did a clean install on each this morning Yet, right before I answered this post, I searched one of them and found there were 1340 .xml files on it... All related to rules and tasks.. both of which pretty much prohibit me from doing anything but paying the internet bill. I think I'm a little beyond downloaded spyware scanning but thanks very much for your reply.
If using the above listed scanners does not fix it or if you are blocked from installing those scanners then ask advice on one of the forums that specialize in malware removal mentioned in the Popups_not_blocked article.
I've already posted on computerhope.com and had a response from one of their malware specialists. Thanks!
