I have Firefox version 5.0.1 on MS windows XP. My problem is that Firefox open a website automatically at a new tab from time to time which is very annoying. I have scanned my computer for viruses and malwares using lot of programs but this did not fix this annoying problem.

The websites which automatically open are:

- http://www.netadfusion.info/r.php
- http://www.humananatomycourse.com/
- http://www.lonelylonelylonely.com/

Any idea how to fix this problem?

this will stop and remove netcut and the redirect problem. I have tested this in vmware and I have emailed the guy who makes netcut and also posted this on cnet downloads.

no antivurs or malware program will pick it up i think it down to the activepacket.dll

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.
