plz help

does anyone know how to get your Internet Explorer to
stop re-setting itself to a home page. I keep setting it
to blank and there is some trojan or something that keeps
setting it back. i checked all my processes on my task
manager and didnt find anything. Maybe in the regestries?

any help would be great.

email me here if you know anything,

go to google.com, and type spyware remover

after that you should see BPS spyware adware remover

download that, install it (its a 5 day free trial)

and play around with it, use the System Hijack icon to
check and fix anything that doesnt belong to your IE
homepage. in fact check it all, and fix only the one when
you scanned the IE homepage link.

i bet its porn sites that did that to you? ;) very
naughty you are!

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. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs.
Make sure CWShredder is among the things you try
If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem please post back
in the same thread.
