Browser Problem ! (Hacker??)

[Ann]

Hi

Please help! When I search the address bar, the Microsoft
broswer is not searching for URLs but a Shopnav.com
address. It's like another search thing and I have no idea
how to get rid of it and get Microsoft back.

Also When I look at the Internet Browser Info., it says
the following and I am wondering if it is intercepted by
hackers or spyware. I have no idea. Thank you!!!

ShopNav is a search-hijacker. See

Thanks for replying Kimmy. I actually was lucky to find my
answer in another post from Jan. 16 and someone said that
it was a third party browser thing and wrote how to
disable it.
