A website called newbienudes.com shows up in my history every night. Shows the site was visited around 2am. Every morning my printer shows several documents pending that are from this website. Obviously something has been placed on my computer to do this but I have no idea how to get rid of it. I've run Norton, Adaware, Spybot, Housecall & PandaScan and nothing is found. I've searched the internet with no success either. Any ideas? Since this has happened I can't print to my printer. I delete the pending documents and when I try to print legimate documents it goes to pending status and then I can't delete. Thanks for any help.

Sounds like you have run quite a few applications to find the problem. I am surprised that Adaware or Spybot didnt find anything.
You should try one more: HiJackThis!

You should be careful using it though. Dont go checking boxes and fixing stuff that you arent sure of. It isnt like Adaware or Spybot where you can essentially let those programs choose what to delete and you just confirm it. HiJackThis will show you a list of a lot of things on your system that are perfectly legit.
Its the BHOs you want to look at (the Browser Helper Objects). If you browser has been hijacked, there might be a BHO there running in the background. If you have a browser toolbar like Yahoo or Google toolbar installed, they will show up as a BHO.
If you suspect any of the BHOs, you should get rid of them.
