Explorer Home Page Overwritten at Restart

[Lussos]

Help!
Can anybody tell me why IE6.0 home page that we have had
for years (as google) all of a sudden keeps being
overwritten with www.any-find.com? I have tried finding
where this command is coming from and no matter how many
times I reset the home page, once I Shutdown, it goes back
to the any-find.com as Home Page. I can't recall
selecting this as a new Home Page and worst of all, I know
I haven't even been to this site. If anyone can help, I
would much appreciate it.
Thanks

Check your system for "hijackware":

Important: You *must* seek updates for Ad-Aware, Spybot, etc., before each
and every use, even "right out of the box". But even they can't catch
everything, 24/7. When all else fails, HijackThis
(http://www.merijn.org/files/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware. **Post
your files to http://forums.spywareinfo.com/ or the HijackThis Logs forum at
http://forum.aumha.org/ for expert analysis, not here.**

Also update your virus definitions and then run a full system scan. From
now on, do both daily.

[Many anti-spyware sites continue to suffer from a week-long DoS attack.
Alternative download pages for Ad-Aware, Spybot, HijackThis and CWShredder

So How Did I Get Infected Anyway?
