browser hijack

[Tlorenz]

I"m having a major problem with the fact my internet
explorer has been hijacked - every time I turn it on, it
goes to a porn site. I followed the instructions in the
microsoft FAQ and reset the registry microsoft/ie
explorer/main home url and start pages back to my default,
but it takes over and resets everytime I start ie. The
Browser Hijack Blaster program tells me what it is trying
to do and let's me reset my home and search pages, but it
still sends me to a random porn site every once in awhile
anyway. I have pretty much given up and am using the
Netscape browser instead, but I would like my Internet
Explorer Back again.

Any help for this?

I don't have much to add to this except to say I'm switching to Netscape too - I hope Microsoft make every effort to take legal action against those responsible for this latest particularly irresponsible antisocial web phenomenon.

The fix below doesn't make any difference.
