Default Homepage

[Azarus]

Somehow, the default homepage for MSIE has been changed.

When I go to tools/Internet Options, I can change my
homepage to whatever I want. When I shutdown and reboot,
the homepage is changed back to the other one.

Also, when I hit "Use Default", the default is changed to
this other page. I'd like to, at a minimum, change
the "use default" back to the originial setting (msn.com I
think).

Any help out there?

Check your system for "hijackware".

HijackThis (http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/hijackthis.zip) is the
preferred tool to use these days. It will help to both identify and remove
any hijackware/spyware. **Post your files to

Also update your virus definitions and then run a full system scan. From
now on, do both daily.
