Control Panel

[Frank]

Also Whenever I load control Panel on the 1st time My
Taskbar disappears and then comes back after about 4 sec
and no control panel loads. If I go into it a second time
it loads.
********************************
I Dont know if Its related to:
-
Yesterday my home page changed to a random site and it
was changed in my IE SETTINGS to some search site.
Also I got a sekdialer.exe (Yesterday) and deleted the
files that It created on that day + time(in C:/Windows).
some names were:
sekdialer.exe
mstasks1.exe
mstasks2.exe
mstasks3.exe
Which I deleted. I scanned my Computer with NAV2004 Anti-
Virus found nothing else. Scanned for Spyware with Ad-
Aware and SpyBot S&D. Both found nothing. I also Cleared
my cookies/Temp Internet Files/History. I then shut down
my computer. Then today The home page changed again to
the search site even though I had
No SPYWARE/VIRUSES/COOKIES/TEMP INTERNET FILES/HISTORY
It did not change it under the IE Settings I opened IE
the First time like yesterday when it done this and on
the second time it went to another site and the third
time it went to my home page.
http://try-this-search.com/ Is the site it trys to go to
(Which seems to not be a real site)
********************************************************
I have Used The Following
Windows Update (All Updates)
Ad-Aware (Found Nothing)
Spybot S&D (Found Nothing)
CWSHREDDER (Found Nothing)
NAV2004 Anti-Virus (Found Nothing)
All programs are fully updates.

Found No Fix for Either.

Hi Frank,

This is a symptom of spyware, etc that Ad-Aware has corrected from many.
However, at times it takes the combo listed here. Run all of these and let
us know how it goes from there.

Thank You very much.
The program called Hyjack This found the Problem.
It seemed that there were several registry keys that made
the home page change. I removed them and now there are no
problems.

Thanks
Frank
