I am having a mess of internet problems. First of all, my
homepage keeps setting to C://WINDOWS/securty.html and
whenever I set it to my original homepage, it just puts
it back.I found the file and delete it, but it literally
just reappears.
That's not all. Whenever I try to open my computer or my
documents an error message comes up telling me explorer
has encountered an error and will close, restart the
computer. So I do, but the problem persists. The same
error message occasionally pops up while I am using the
internet, at completely random times. There is no rhyme
or reason to their popping up. Well. That is about it.
I'm trying to avoid just reformating my computer. So can
anyone help me?

Sounds like you have a virus. Make sure you have all the up to date Windows
updates and run a good virus scan program.
 
Get either or both of: Adaware & Spybot and run them to
remove Spyware - then you should be fine
