some sort of bug or virus or something, keeps resetting my homepage. I'm
using ie 6 and have jut installed the service pack two (which did nothing).
I also recently bought new virusscan software and that did nothing. and i
also tried ad-aware. i set my homepage and after a couple times of opening
ie it resets the homepage to: http://home-search.cc/se1.php?qq=tramadol, some
search engine. its pretty annoying, but i'm most concerned with the fact
that whatever this is could be doing other stuff. Any suggetsions,
recommendations?

Hi,
Download and run CWShredder, Ad-aware, Spybot (in that order.)
