| The Naupoint guys have struck again. First it was their toolbar now they
| have taken over my homepage.
|
| I cannot get my homepage to change from find.naupoint.com
|
| I have attempted to reset the homepage via tools->options (obvious first
| step).
|
| I have removed references of find.naupoint from the registry and it returns.
|
| I have run lavasoft, giant antispyware, CWShredde and the homepage of
| find.napuoint.com remains.
|
| Any ideas?
