Some kind of porn worm wrecked my explorer!

[Guest]

I found myself stuck in an endless flood of porn pop-ups so I quit the
application. When I opened explorer again, my home page changed to
easy-search.biz. I've changed it in web options but it always comes back. It
has slowed explorer down to a crawl and if I click a link on any search
engine, it diverts to another set of porn pop-ups!

I think I need to re-install explorer but this new worm won't let me
download anything.

Somebody help me!

wrecking my business.

It seems as tho this worm has updated the registry.
You need to edit the registry and find the URL and delete it.

1. Get up to date virus software and install and run it to disinfect your
computer

2. Get Spybot or Ad-aware and run it to get rid of spyware on your system

3. Never open attachments sent to you from the internet unless you know and
trust who they are from

4. Never install freeware downloaded from the internet on your computer
unless you know what it is, what it does and you trust the source.

5. If you control your internet access make sure you have a router with a
firewall installed which will block incoming traffc from the internet
