When I was searching for a website,there were some 'porn'
ads came across.A dialog box prompted and I was told to
block them for they were malicious.After that,the taksbar
button changed to the address of the ads.Besides,I have a
problem of setting my homepage.I go to Internet Options,
under General,I can't type my address there.Then I try to
reset web setting,but the dialog box indicates my web
setting have been reset to the original Internet Explorer
defaults.Please help me on this.Thank you.
 
Karen,

First, scan the system for parasites and remove them. SpyBot S&D searches
your harddisk for Spyware and Adware

&

Adaware (similar)

(Remember to perform a Webupdate to have the latest definitions installed)

This will remove malware from the PC.
