Firefox (and other browsers) Users...

[Drude]

Okay, so...

Installed the program, actually pretty impressed so far. Have had NONE
of the problems that many people on here have experienced (no, it didn't
shut down my firewall...), so....so far so good.

However, on EVERY reboot, I am getting a warning message from the
program saying that my browser has been hijacked, and gives me the
choice of allowing it or not. I assume it is detecting Firefox.

I use Firefox, have for awhile now, and am not about to go back to IE.
Ever. Is this Anti-Spyware program ALWAYS going to think that my
Firefox has hijacked IE? Has anyone else had this popup? Is there a
workaround? Or should I just put up with it for now, as I realize this
is just a Beta Version?

If anyone from MS is watching: what can be done about this?

Thanks,

Drude

Since I am running Firefox as well and have not had this
problem on the 5 computers I have installed it onto I
will say that you might actually have some kind of IE
browser hijacker on your system. Check the list of
BHO's, etc. under the Advanced Tools.

Of course it may be detecting Firefox, but it's certainly
not behaving that way on my 5 test machines nor the
machines of a few other users here in the office, all of
whom use Firefox.

I get a similar warning, but it says the home page has
been hijacked. I set the homepage (in firefox and IE) to
http://www.google.com and MS antispyware doesn't seem to
like this.
