Program Hijacked IE 6.

[Justin B.]

A program has hijacked some words and some functions of
IE 6. Words like money, hot, dvd, and more are always
linked to a pay site like lavalife.com. I don't know
where I got it and would like to get rid of it. Any
suggestions?

Get Hijack from
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/hijackthis.zip


Or get BHCop from
http://www.pcmag.com/utilities/

One of these will solve your problem - probably most likely HiJack!
