Each time I shut down my computer or restart, going into
IE6, searchdot.net defaults as my home page. I go into
internet options and change back to MSN. But if I
shutdown and go back in, it defaults back to
searchdot.net.

How do I get rid of this, I do not trust the site, but I
can not find where it would be loaded to remove it.
