Hi, I'm new to this and need some help. I have Windows xp and am using IE7. I've noticed that every file I open on my computer (word,excel,print shop ,etc) is being shown in the IE history as a web page that I visited. I am not using IE to open these files. I have ran AVG antivirus, Norton antivirus, spybot, adaware and counter spy. None of the items that they have found has stopped this. I thought that only pages that you have visited on the web showed up in your IE history. Can anyone tell me why this is happening, can I stop my files from going to the IE history.? Are my files safe? Also for example if I click on my word file in the IE history I get a box asking "do I want to save this file or open it". Any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you
