Hi julie.

can you let me know if your software is finding the hijacker file or not, if
so, what is the file name and location please..

If you have run all those malware finders I assume you mean your home page
is set to blank. If that is what you mean open control panel | internet
options. Look where it says 'home page'. You can either type the address
into there or browse to the page you want to use as your home page then
cross 'use current' which will put the address in the correct box. Close all
internet explorer windows and reopen to see if it works.

Please repost if you find the fault
