Virus changing home page url

[Guest]

How do I get rid of it? I've tried a virus scan using Norton, no good. A .dll file seems to be created every time I run explorer (6.0), and every time I delete it it gets re-created so presumably there is a program somewhere on the C drive that creates it. Anyone any tips?

Hi

Try these programs to check for any spyware that may be on your system:

Ad-Aware - www.lavasoftusa.com
Spybot - http://www.safer-networking.org/
CWShredder - http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html

Also see the following link:
