Virus affecting Explorer 6.0

[Chris]

My home page has been changed by a virus affecting my
computer, and the virus must have also affected my
ability to change my homepage back to what I want to use,
because I know longer have a tab within my "Internet
Options" labeled "general" (which is what I would
normally use to update my homepage, and to clean out my
history, etc.). Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks,

Chris

This is caused by parasites. First priority: Download CWShredder and run it.
