Jack in Down Under

Hi,
I'm having a journey in Australia.
And I'm helping my aunt's computer to recover from the webpage hijack
problem.
The first thin' I did was to use spybot and ad-aware both detected about 70
spyware and trojan.Though I have successfully remove them, when I opened up
IE, it was still hijacked to somewhere else
known as find.com and every web site I entered in the text bar was hijacked
to www.www.hotmail.com.net where the header and trailer was maliciously
added.
etc.
Can somebody help?
Thanks
Jack

Even though you've done some work already, I don't know your methods so
go through these general malware removal steps systematically -
http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

Include scanning with either Sysclean or Multi_AV, plus Ewido. Do all
prep/finishing work and follow instructions to do all scans in Safe
Mode.

When all else fails, run HijackThis and post your log in one of the
specialty forums listed at the link above (not here, please).

If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting
this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a professional
computer repair shop (not your local version of BigStoreUSA).
