homepage changes, trojan horse

[Guest]

My homepage constantly changes to the looking for
webpage. I've run spybot, adaware, and norton anti-
virus. spybot and adaware found some things, so I fixed
them. Norton found nothing. I deleted the items in Reg
edit under the main tab of Internet explorer. The
problem is still there, and continues to bug me! Any
suggestions would be helpful. Thank you

First eliminate any scumware.
See
Dealing with Unwanted Spyware, Parasites, Toolbars and Search Engines
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each need to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs.

If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem please post back
in the same thread.

Use "hijackthis", but be very carefull!! Know what you looking at! The program has a BACK_U
feature. If you remove an ITEM, which YOU THINK is the problem, REBOOT at every remova
O.K.? Or you might get in to more problems than you had in the first place
Or post the result of the scan on this forum and I'm maybe able to advise you
Good Luck
