I need help with an issue of my XP IE, that when I type
in www.msn.com or www.yahoo.com I go to royalsearch.com.

home page changes to coolwebsearch.com every time I
reboot. I have tried deleting cookies and history but
nothing seems to work.

First eliminate any scumware.
See
Dealing with Unwanted Spyware, Parasites, Toolbars and Search Engines
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each need to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs.

If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem please post back
in the same thread.
