Hi

Could anyone please tell me how to get rid of those
homepage websites that impose themselves and override the
original set homepage address.
 
Ray,

This is caused by parasites.

Homepage changes unexpectedly:

First eliminate any scumware.
See
Dealing with Unwanted Spyware, Parasites, Toolbars and Search Engines
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each need to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded.

If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem please post back
in the same thread.
