When I type a url, I always get
http://vrape.hardloved.com/php?id=1&s= then the chosen
url. Except when I type google I get sent to yahoo. If I
try to change the home page, I get the above line. When I
go up Set Programs and Defaults it says custom, other
browser, and will not let me change it to IE. I have the
latest McAffee and spy sweeper to no avail. Suggestions?
I don't like being vraped.
 
Try other spyware scanners. When I clean spyware, I use both Spybot and
Ad-aware. I don't think any of available scanners can clean all spyware.

Also remember that you might have even virus like Qhost, which stops you to
use search engines. It messes with windows hosts file.

Corrupt or compromised HOSTS file.

Search for the file named HOSTS (just that, no extension).

Open it with any text editor (Wordpad, Notepad, etc.),
delete everything, save the blank document. If you're
skittish about what might happen, save a copy on your
desktop before you clear it out.

Restart your machine.

All should be well.
