Thanks for your kindly recommendations. I have installed an ad-ware software, and it alerts the default page is being changed but not removing the unintended program. Do you know the way to remove it manually by editing the registry or any good shareware

General recommendation for cleaning up most of those problems is Ad-Aware
In extreme cases, you might want to use some of the more powerfu
anti-spyware programs, though my experiences have made me cautious abou
recommending them to inexperienced users (which is how you sound in you
post)
My specific recommendation would be to never again visit any Web site tha
does anything like that. Privacy-violating Web sites are like a plague an
should be avoided for the same reasons. (Okay, metaphor straining exercise
completed for the day.
You can also adjust your security settings in IE, or use a differen
browser. For example, you can make Opera or Mozilla your default browser an
be safe from most browser-based attacks, since it is rare for those peopl
to target any other browsers (and since those non-IE browsers ar
intrinsically more secure). After you have decided that a particular We
site is "safe" and requires IE, then you can still use IE in the specifi
case
