my internet explorer homepage keeps opening up on its own, i have done a nortons virus check and dont have a virus i have also used 2 spyware eliminators and it still happens, can anyone help me please
 
Craig,
When does it open up, when you're using another program like 'Word' or
'Excel'? Or is your IE browser already open and you're on another site then
it goes to your Home page all of a sudden? Or, are you dialing up and after
it connects your Home page opens?

I don't have an answer for you except to speculate that *something* is
calling Internet Explorer every few hours. When it happens again, do a
Ctrl-Alt-Del to get Task Manager and see what applications and
processes are running. Perhaps there will be a clue. Also, try posting
to the forums on www.spywareinfo.com. That is a terrific site, and the
people on the forums are extremely knowledgeable and helpful.

Good luck,

Malke
P.S. - If you *do* figure it out, please post back with the answer so we
can all learn. Take care, M.
