Setting Home Page for I.E. 6

C

Craig Kim

If anyone can help me please do so...recently I have
experienced a problem with my browser. When I double
click on Internet Explorer, my home page changes from
yahoo.com to res://pugwh.dll/index.html#96676. I have a
feeling that I have someone's spyware crap on my
computer. I've tried repeatedly to reset the home page
but it doesn't work. Also, I have tried to change the
home page from registry editor but still it is not
working. I have also gone ahead and tried to restore old
settings but it still won't work. I am all out of ideas,
could someone please help me with this. Thanks again,
Craig
