and i clicked on a link and alota pages opened. (i have
no clue why) well after that it asked me if i wanted to
change my home page to some page that i didnt want it to

i clicked the red (x) close button up top. then some
other pages open. i deleted temporary internet files.

different and i tryed to set it at my defualt page it
would but every time i start my computer its the same
page i didnt want. please send me some information via

DC,

I would recommend downloading Spybot S&D and running a scan, removing any
spyware/adware that it finds.

Download some anti spyware software eg spybot or adaware and run it. It will
check for spy ware and can uninstall it for you. Don't let it delete
anything automatically because it can sometimes class some legitimate
software incorrectly.
When you've cleared your computer, install some popup stopper software to
prevent future popups. Google's freeware toolbar will do this for in
addition to giving you a direct link to its search engine.
If you ever get a similar popup to the one you got above, use the system
close box if it's available on the window, or Alt f4. Don't click anything
on the window itself.
