Hi Guys,
Last night my homepage changed from Google to safetyhompeage.com, which
notifyes me of spyware on my pc and takes me to a link to purchse their
software. I have run ad-aware which identified and deleted some risks.
However, I cant get rid of this new homepage. Google is still set as my
hompeage but gets re-directed to this new one. Any ideas how to get rid of
it, or does anyone know anything baout this website?

thanks for your hlp
much appreciated
