Well thanks for the reply.

AutoUpdate aint been working as it shows up in the 'Update History' on Windows Update. And doing updates fails on "The Genuine Advantage" doobry whatsit.

And IE is eating 96% CPU time ! Thats all I know without looking deeper.

I'm not usually one to reply on FD... but I'm gonna have to respond to this
one.

A) How do you know that your "AutoUpdate" isn't working... There hasn't been
an update pushed out since the last Patch Tuesday (May 9th).
B) KB913580 references MS06-018 which was released during the May Patch
Tuesday (Again, May 9th... so you would have been updated at this time)...
C) I've got through the source for that page and the included javascript and
have found nothing out of the ordinary... I've also loaded in it multiple
browsers and watched what happened... there was no malicious behaviour..

Plenty of Advertising sites are flagged by anti spyware these days... solely
because they leave behind cookies..

Peace,
HT

It may be because my system was not updated since May 14th as AutoUpdate has

not worked since then, BUT has not warned me (nice one Microsoft). There has

been a MS update since then, KB913580, which may have closed the
vulnerability; possibly.

'adserving.budsinc.com' is being flagged up by anti-spyware.
