Issue witg Bug.cgi

by kuldeepc Sep 29, 2006 11:16AM PDT

I get this red X on hotjobs.yahoo.com and several other web pages in IE on my laptop. Here is my machine configuration:

Windows XP Home with SP2.
IE 6.0.2900.x sp2.x
I am running the ez ARmor Antivirus on my machine.

If i look at the source behind the page I notice the red X box is essentially a call to
127.0.0.1:1028/bug.cgi. now 127.0.0.1 is the loopback address. It happens on some of the web pages e.g hotjobs.yahoo.com, some ebay pages, etc.

I also get:

You are not authorized to view this page

You might not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials you supplied

HTTP Error 403 - Forbidden

I have already tried everything mentioned in the following thread but am not able to get rid of this nuisance.

Any help will be highly appreciated.
