Browser Hijack

[billermanw]

Recently a web site has taken over my home page. When I
open IE 6.0, the home page automatically opens to this
site. I have changed the address that I want to use as my
home page in the internet options with no luck. It just
keeps coming back. I have run the GoBack program in
Nortom as well as scanned my computer with an updated
version of the antivirus. I have also run a new version
of Ad-aware with no success. Any ideas?

Thanks

Its a virus. We had that happen to us. But our virus software ended up finding it. Try the rescue disk with Norton.

This may be caused by a third-party program (adware, spyware, parasite).
Get AdAware and SpyBot and run them both. Keep them up to date.
