Off-Topic Gav, this one's on XP.
It happens in IE8. Ironically I was looking on Bing search for the Hijackthis forums, and it kept getting re-directed.
AVG ran last night and didn't find anything.
Replacing the HOSTS hasn't worked, as it happens with IE and Chrome.
Now running SUPERAntiSpyware on Mal's advise.

So the FIA points system went from 6 cars in points to 8 cars and 10-6-4 went to 10-8-6. This after Ferrari ran away with both championships in 2001 and 2002, 2001

Other Motorsports It's wrong for one team to dominate all proceedings like Hendrick seem to be doing. Reminiscent of Ferrari earlier this decade. The difference between NASCAR and FIA in that respect is FIA changed things to shake up the order, NASCAR doesn't.

Other Motorsports No, it isn't.
The "chase" basically renders the first 26 races null and void for the top 12 guys in the championship. It means the rest of the field doesn't have anything to fight for for the last 10 races (except prize money and media coverage), and some lucky beggars can get into the pot instead of somebody who has the pace and tenacity to challenge at the front on a regu

Grand Prix 4 Monil, get a bloody Blu-Ray player and hook that up instead. Hell, do the worst and actually torrent the movies instead and connect the PC up to it. Sky HD's not worth the money unless you have the sports and watch the movies on a regular basis. For the most part, Freesat, or an equivalent free-to-air satellite receiver will actually suffice for BBC HD, ITV HD, and C4 HD when it becomes FTA
