Hi, I've been a member of stitching forums on ezboard for over 3yrs and all
of a sudden I cannot access any ezboard site from my computer. I've tried it
from other peoples and can access them. Can anyone help with suggestions I'm
ready to pull my hair out with this as it's important I can access the
forums, I pay to help one keep going!! I'm not exceptionally computer lit so
please make it simple :o)

Can you find your forum here: http://www.forumfind.com/ If not then what is
the name or address of your forum? Can you access the internet at all?
Good Luck

Hi Photog

Thanks for replying, I tried the forum find address you posted and all I get
is 'page cannot be displayed' I seem to get this everytime I try to access
most forum sites now. I haven't changed any settings on my computer since
last visit to the forum.
The address is:
www.ezboard.com
thanks Blondie

It sounds to me that your browser has been hijacked.

1. Download hijackthis from http://www.tomcoyote.org/hjt/
2. Install hijackthis on your C: drive.
3. Open the program and click on Do a system scan and save a logfile.
4. Save the logfile.
5. Visit http://www.hijackthis.de/
6. Either copy and paste your logfile contents into the space provided, or
7. Click on the Browse button and locate your logfile.
8. Click on Analyze
9. Wait a few minutes and the results will be displayed.
10. Follow the instructions for the "Nasty" entries.

Good luck.

Could be a malware infection:
So How Did I Get Infected Anyway?
For quite a few people it's by installing Messenger Plus, whose default
install is loaded with malware. See also:

Don't ever do a "default" install of anything. Always choose Custom and see
what else is being carried along.

I don't think you'll be able to deal with this problem by yourself. Call
your ISP. If they can't help find a friend who has the skills to deal with
an infected computer or take your computer in for service.
Good Luck
