Have decided not to use Anti Spyware by microsoft because
everytime I use it, it changes my startup page to a
microsoft page. I have changed it under prefrence yet it
alway reverts back to the micorsoft page. My normal
startup is a travia quiz I like to start the day off
with. Seems microsoft is doing the very thing it blames
spyware of, taking over my computer.

Plus it deosn't seem to work. I just got another pop up
ad, even with all the popups turned off and minutes after
I ran the AntiSpyware scanned my computer. Because of
all these popups and spam mail, I think I am getting rid
of this computer. The internet has become too much of a
hassel and no longer a convience. I have better things
to do with my life.

Go to Advanced Tools > Browser Restore > under "Restore Internet Explorer
Browser Settings check "Start Page" and select it. Under "Details" (right
hand pane) at the bottom, click the "Change restore setting to a new URL,
type in your desired web page and click "OK".
