I have got some sort of virus or adware that keeps taking over my home page.
I have run anti virus programs and different adware removal programs but to
no avail.

If I set my home page from the tools option within IE everything works fine
but if I click on the HOME icon or when I restart IE the home page has
changed again.

A right click/properties on the malicious home page gives me
www.e-finder.cc/hp/ Also each time I click on the HOME icon the page
changes but with the same address.

The home page is called Your Search Page


Any help please

Most of these hijackings that lead to a .cc page are a variant of
CoolWebSearch. Get the CWShredder here, be sure to select the
'stand-alone' version link.
