A corrupt programme about:blank keeps appearpng as my
home page in internet explorer & I am unable to change it
by using the internet options menu.

Antispyware has has recognised it as a high risk treat
but has not been able to remove it when I take the
recommended action.

How can I restore my home page.

Go to tools then internet options and choose current page.

In Microsoft AntiSpyware, go to Advance Tools > Browser Restore, check
"Start Page" in the right pane at the bottom, choose "change URL
Settings..." link and type in the desired Start page url link you want and
click ok.

Restart the computer in safe mode, open Microsoft AntiSpyware, on the scan
page choose scan options > Full System Scan > (check boxes below) > click
"Run Scan Now".

Restart in safe mode instructions:

Seems like an awful lot of user effort for a wide-spread
problem whose 'solution' is presented as a fundmental of
MSAS...that doesn't actually work.
Or am I misinterpreting that particular advanced tools
intended function?
