New MSN Desktop Search Toolbar and spyware

[Alan K]

I have just installed the new MSN desktop search
toolbar. Now, when MS AntiSpyware runs it's daily
schedule, it finds a possible browser hijack at
http://g.msn.com.

Is this an error in software compatibility or a genuine
threat?

What was your default-start-page in I.E. befóre you
installed the toolbar? MSN toolbar wants his/her startpage
as your defaultpage in I.E. You can save your new
startpage in MSAS, have you done that ? Jan.

I have Google as my default for IE and I haven't saved my
start page in MSAS yet. I didn't know you could save it
or even needed to! - Alan
