Whenever I open my Internet explorer a site
called"www.coolsearch.com" comes up.. I have not set this
page as my home page. I tried to change this site through
internet tools options. but next time when I connect my
computor to internet and opens my IE, the same site comes
up. I like to keep my home page blank. I tried to ban
this site by putting this site in my restricted sites.
But again next time when I open the same site comes up.
Is there any solution which could help me to keep my home
page blank and no sites in future will not get in my
windows registry.

thanking you, waiting for a great solution
