A couple times I go to the http://www.cdcovers.cc/ to pick up a CD
cover.

Seems like everytime I go there I get this home page taking over my IE
homepage.

http://default-homepage-network.com/indexNEW.html

Can anybody tell me how to stop this guy from changing my homepage.

I'm using Kelly's #63. Home Page Lock for Internet Explorer and my
homepage in Tools is greyed out.

Ad aware finds and removes it... but is there a better way to keep him
out.

Appreciate the help

Yes. Install a good popup blocker, and make sure your Windows Updates
are current. There is a fairly recent patch to help prevent the
"highjacking" of homepages via java. If you don't visit online game
sites, you MIGHT consider disabling java all together......java does
more harm than good (in my opinion).
Concider yourself lucky so far. There are highjackers out there that
adaware can't cure.

Thanks Kelly;

I've got it already and using but to no avail. When I go to Tools and
open it ... the whole page is greyed out.

I've just installed SpyBlaster v3.0. See how it works. Thanks to you
for you site and the many items that you have there for all. I've got
the majority and using a bunch. The others are just in case I need
thjem.

Thanks again. John
