  • Sounds like an HSBC problem or a CACHE problem. Try deleting your cookies and temp internet files.. also press F5 a few times to do a proper refresh of the page then login again.

  • Aha! Search_Glow is a bug within the Windows Live toolbar!

    Does Search_Glow appear in the taskmanager when you do CTRL + ALT + DELETE

    If so remove windows live toolbar from add/remove programs and if tat doesnt work:

    1. Download this file
    http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/combofix.exe
    2. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
    3. When finished, it shall produce a log for you called combofix.log. Post the content of that log in your next reply

    Note:
    Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall
