I am currently using windows XP SP1. I believe my default homepage has been
hijacked by an unknown website. I have done these following steps but no cure
when i restart the pc:-
a) Reset web settings
b) Spyware programme has been installed.
c) Delete the so-called unknown website from the regedit.

Can anyone tell me what to do without formating the whole stuff?
Thanks.

When all else fails, HijackThis v1.99.1
http://aumha.net/downloads/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware.
