Search Page Changed By Spyware

[Guest]

I recently installed a program which changed my address
bar search page so can anyone please tell me the value
of "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Main\Search Bar" in the registry if their
address bar search engine is msn.

PS. Only Tell me the value of the key, don't give me
links to programs that remove spyware/adware.

First eliminate any scumware.

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.

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