I am facing this propblem with the IE 6.0 Browser in
Windows 98 that my Homepage changes to something like
www.websearch.net but in the Homepage settings under the
General tab in Internet Options - it shows about:blank. I
have also changed the homepage to the desired site in the
same option and also in the Windows Registry Editor (Start
Page) - Still no go.

Pls reply soon.

Help Required.

Yours truly,
Shalabh Bharadwaj.

It is a virus or a parisite and very annoying you need a
spy or ad ware. On one of my computers I still can not
get rid of it.
