I-Lookup

[Steve Talosi Jr.]

I installed this patch but it doesn't seem to help. My
Home page keeps defaulting back to I-Lookup and I keep
getting all of these unwanted pop-ups. I go to the
Control Panel, Internet Options, Programs, reset, delete
cookies and files but after the second time I go into
Internet Explorer, my default is I-Lookup again.

Do I have to wipe out my computer and re-install Windows
to get rid of this problem?
