I have a user with Windows XP home running IE 6 using Cable internet. He can't browse any web pages unless he types http:// first and then the web address. He had a spyware issue (igetnet) that I was able to remove with spybot but now he can't veiw a page unless he types the above. Has anyone heard of this problem and know what the solution is.

Thanks
