Use MyIE2 as default browser. Launched and had some site,
www.coolsearch.biz, as the start page. Noticed there was porn, pills, etc,
as part of the content.Changed to My Yahoo as start page. No matter what I
do the homepage ALWAYS reverts to coolsearch. I've been through the registry
and deleted every instance of it. When I change the homepage in Internet
Options it is ALWAYS changed back. How do I get rid of this damn thing? And
may I assume that 'forbidden' sites were visited by my kid(s)?
 
Hi

Ad-Aware - www.lavasoftusa.com
Spybot - http://www.safer-networking.org/
CWShredder - http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html
