Default About:blank not cured via MS Anti-Spyware


I've installed MS Anti-Spyware, and I'm satisfied with
everything. Unfortunately, it doesn't stop "about:blank"
tool bar hijacker from changing my internet settings.


Oh well.

Hi

Maybe a round in safe mode and junk removal cure this
and a little help from Adaware.

- Download CCleaner, www.ccleaner.com and remove all temporarily junk.

- Download/Install Lavasofts Adaware
http://www.download.com/Ad-Aware-SE...2.html?tag=list

IMPORTANT ! After install upgrade Adaware definitions with "Check for
updates".

- Restart in safe mode, press F8 during reboot just before Windows flag
screen appears.

- Scan with MSAS and Lavasoft Adaware, choose "full scans".


And let us know if it works.............
