browser hijacking - luckysearch.net

[Sean Downer]

Hi,

my browser is having the default home page hijacked to a hompage of
luckysearch.net/pgdoc/

The address in the homepage is
http://acc.count-all.com/-/?pgdo
%63 about:blank (please don't click this link). I don't know how it
appeared and I can't get rid of it whatever I try, can anybody assist me
please. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
