I have somehow allowed a website to be the default upon
start up of IE 6.0. Even when I change the home page to
the page of my choice, it stays until I shut down my
system. The culprit website is www.gueb.com.

How can I change the setup in IE 6.0 to keep from
defaulting to www.gueb.com when ever the computer is shut
down?

Any help will be appreciated.

Likely Spyware Infestation.

You may be the victim of a Spyware hijacker. I visited the site and some links
quietly attempt to download an executable file without your request or consent.

Go to:
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/hijackthis.zip

Unzip, double-click "HijackThis.exe" and Press "Scan".

When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log"
button.
Click: "Save Log" (generates "hijackthis.log")

Next, HijackThis | Config [button] | Misc Tools [button]
Click: Generate StartupList log [button] (generates "startuplist.txt")

Next, go to the below location: Spyware and Hijackware Removal Support.
