Hi
Don't know how but I've lost my homepage on IE, keep getting some page
called systemupdates.net, even though have checked my tools settings and they
all say it is set to the dell/myway homepage. Security software has told me
its a hijacker and is relatively harmless but a nuisance. Have runn scans etc
no luck it's still there any ideas. Have tried studying registry and seems ok
but am willing to try anything at moment
