Thumbs down Problem in browsing

Dear freinds ,
My friend isusing IE6 as the default web browser
Till recently, there was no problem. Few days back he visited few porno sites but later discontinued. But after this he is having a peculiar problem.
Whenever he give any URL in the address like 'lycos.com' without prefixing 'www', the URL automatically changed to some porno address without his interruption. as per the earlier posts I have made here got the feedback, I suggested him installing Ad- Aware and Spybot search and destory. This worked out well for me earlier. But now in his case it is not solving the problem.

Please help.

Regards
Srinath

In IE, go to tools > internet options > "content" tab > auto complete. Click "clear forms". That should do the trick.
