I need help. My homepage on my internet got changed and I
now have 10-20 popups coming up all at once. The problem
is I can NOT change the page back its "locked" in to the
other page how do I un lock it and put it back to my
original homepage?!

Sounds like you have a spyware problem, Try running Spybot Search&Destroy

It is a problem that my friend was presented with a while ago.

What web brouser are you using?

My friend when using a BTYahoo Broadband brouser had it locked. If you can
tell me what brouser you are using I could have a peek round to see what I
can find.
