Default IE Opening on start?

Hi again, I thought this might be part of the Spyware I had on the desktop recently, but whenever we start the PC up Internet Explorer opens up and attempts to connect to a page [http:suppconn.info] or something along those lines, except there's always an "internel service error"

Anyone seen this before? Any idea what it is or how I can stop it popping up? The PC takes long enough to load without having to try to open that page...

Thanks again,
LePsycho

P.S I just finished following Prework, however none of my logs seemed to work so I can't upload much. I doubt it's a serious Spyware though...

If you can't get the logs, try running a TrendMicro Housecall scan from my signature. It does a great job of getting rid of any virus', malware and any other nasties. Also check your startup folder (start > all programs > startup) and see if you have anything thats a web page in there. Otherwise we would need a HijackThis! log and that would probably be the best option.
