XP/SP3-Kaspersky Internet Suite 7.0 IE7-FF3.0 Comcast ISP-
I uninstalled Search & Destroy in preparation to ungrade to the latest version of KIS. I am an average user, but can follow basic directions.
I can go to my homepage with IE or FF. I can sign in, but I cannot get to my e-mail. Window comes up saying," The current web page is trying to open a site in your Trusted site list. Do you want to allow this?
Current: http://ad,yieldmanager.com Trusted Site: Res://ieframe.dll
Doesn't matter if I tick yes or no, Smartzone Inbox will not load.
Url is: http://sz0003.wc.mail.comcast.net/zimba/mail# I have tried the direct link (smartzone.comcast.net) after signing in as well. Same problem.
It is so long ago that I did anything with the settings when I had S &D installed, that I don't know if something was set to block ads, but I do think so. Someone suggested I check the Host Files, which I know absolutely nothing about, followed the directions to get there, but unsure of what is there. First entry shows Hosts, followed by many 'back-ups' then IMhosts networks, protocol- services.
Also- I noted when this window comes up asking permission to allow, etc. The yellow warning icon in the bottom left side of my screen shows this as the details:
Line 116-Char 5-Error: Object expected- Code:0
http://sz003.wc.mail.comcast.net/zimba/h/overviewAds

Is there something still on my pc that is causing this window to come up? What can I do to fix this? I really need some expert help. Once this is fixed I can then upgrade my KIS and reinstall S &D again.
Thank you for any help you can give me.
