I've had a problem in my Microsoft Internet Explorer for the past, what seems like about three weeks. There's this box titled "Current Polls" in the upper-left corner, which continues on with some radio-button questions about a comment checkbox.
I've looked through all of my Internet Options and security settings, and enabled & disabled everything twice, but the "Current Polls" box is still there.
I tried deleting my registry and formatting my hard drive, but nothing has worked.
Can anybody help?

I had this problem awhile ago, too. This is the only solution I've found.
* Using Notepad or some other text editor, open the file named âhostsâ, which is located in the following directory:
o Windows XP = C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC
o Windows 2K = C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC
o Windows 98\ME = C:\WINDOWS
* Add the following on its own line in the hosts file, using the sites that apply to you:
127.0.0.1 dpchallenge.com
* Save and quit. |

Yes, I normally find it very interesting, then even more interesting, then even MORE interesting. Finally ending in a crescendo of interest, followed immediately by disinterest and guilt.
