My internet explorer has been hijacked to a site
(ilookup.com) Everytime I log on to the internet the
browser goes to that site. I have not been able to reset
my browser. Any suggestions??
Thanks
 
Your machine has been hijacked by spyware and possibly a
virus. If you can make your browser work, go to Yahoo
and search for Spybot Search & Destroy. Download,
install and run it. It should clean up most of the
problem. You should also go to www.trendmicro.com and
run their Housecall utility to double check that the
spyware hasn't left a back door into your system.

If you can't get your browser working enough to do the
above, you will need another machine (from work or a
friend's) to download Spybot S&D. Put it on a CD-R and
load it onto your stricken machine.
