Hi anonymous
Hi all:
I cannot change my homepage, becuase the box for which
to type my desired homepage in had appreantly gone gray
when I clicked on Internet Options. I scanned my computer
with anti-virus and ad-aware, but it still won't allow me
to change. Can anyone please help. Thanks a lot.
You may have malware of a hijacker on your system that could cause this
problem. Try this program first and see if it helps.

If the above did not work, then do the following:
HiJackThis: - Free
Go to

or

and download HiJackThis. Unzip to a folder other than your Desktop or the
Temp folder, doubleclick HiJackThis.exe, and hit "Scan".
When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log"
button. Press that, save the log some place you remember where it is.
Most of what it lists will be harmless or even required, so DO NOT fix
anything yet.
