IE redirects me to a porn site

[Ashutosh]

At random my internet explorer redirects me to a porn
site extremelybabes.com. I have restricted this site and
downloaded sevice pack 1 but still this site is opened on
the first click.I have window XP.
Please suggest the registry entry that needs resetting.
It is very embarassing. Please help.
Norton anti virus does not detect anything. i though it
was fortnight virus that has attacked.

Kind regards

Your home page is probably set to that site. Click tools,

internet options, general. Check what your homepage is set
to. If it is set on that site, change it to www.google.com
or any site besides that one.

Install either but both are not necessary, reboot, read FAQ and overview, use
online update feature to obtain the latest reference files, scan for Spyware
much like you would with your pre-installed anti-virus scanner.
Rid your machine of unwanted Spyware pests.
