Homepage distress

[Guest]

I am having a problem with setting my homepage. Everytime I set it to the
page i want (www.msn.com) that stays for a while then it automatically change
to some dumb site (www.search-paga.com/10039/) and I just can't get my
homepage to stick. i tried resetting my webb settings to default, that
doesn't work either. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
This is because some your bowser is infected,so install anti spyware and run
the scan in the safe mode(Press F8 during startup to enter the safe mode).
you can find a good program at the given location:

1) adaware away: http://www.adwareaway.com/aboutblank.htm

2)Ad-Aware SE Personal Edition 1.05 :

3)Hijack this : http://www.tomcoyote.org/hjt/

4)Spybot Search & Destroy :
http://www.download.com/3000-2144-10122137.html?part=104443&subj=dlpage&tag=button

Run all these programs in safe mode and remove all the spyware found by
these programs.
Hope these will make you feel better . . .

As "prashanth" has said - you've been hijacked by some form of "malware",
"spyware", "Trojan" or "virus".

In XP Service Pack 2, IE has its own option to remove these parasites. See
Tools, Internet Options, Programs, and the "Manage Add-ons" button. I've
never used these in anger, and it may be that recent parasite writers
(themselves parasites) have found a way round these controls. Sorry to tell
you that it can take an expert hours to get rid of some of these infections.
