Home Page problems

[Captain Frustrato]

I'm having a problem where everytime I start up IE, it
fires it off to some weird home page. Even if I delete the
cache, history, cookies, and reset it to "blank page", it
still goes to the same site next time I start the program.

Anyone here know what's going on or how to fix it?

TIA!

Hi -

You have been hijacked.

This is my first visit to the Microsoft forums. I don't
know how to tell if this post has already been replied to.

Anyway, here goes ...

Follow the instructions here:
http://www.spywareinfo.com/rd/faq

Then post here by clicking the 'New Topic" button:
http://forums.spywareinfo.com/index.php?showforum=7

I suggest you use the title "Captain Frustrato has been
hijacked" as your new topic subject. If you follow the
rules the odds are 95+% that the nice Forum Gods at
spywareinfo.com will show you how to rid yourself of your
hijack(s).

If you are really new at all of this and are having trouble
understanding and following the steps in the FAQ see if you
can't get a knowledgeable friend to help you with the steps
in the FAQ.

The FAQ comes across kinda' heavy. Try not to be put off
by that. Do post what they want in the way that they
want it. It makes it much easier for them to help you.

As I said above this is my first visit to the m$ forums. I
won't be reading replies in this thread, sorry.

Best of luck,
MrPete
