don't use internet explorer as the browser hijackers are
coded for it. wild tangent is spyware.

spybot: safer-networking.org ,,,,,,,,ad-aware:
lavasoftusa.com ,,,,,, safe to remove spyware with.

don't "click on install this to run" when you visit a web
site and you won't get browser hijackers

mozilla.org for browser 'firefox' .
