what is ehttp.cc?

[Guest]

I seem to have this new address change on any sites that I enter. Does anyone know why or how to change.
It starts an address for e.g. ehttp.cc?//http.yahoo.com
maybe it's no big deal but I never noticed it before. Thanks centmech

Might be a "big deal". Has your manchine been hi-jacked?

Searching Google:
http://www.google.com/search?q=ehttp.cc&sourceid=mozilla-search&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
suggests it might be.

Owner of the domain ehttp.cc is "hidden" when I serach for it on the
internet. I've not tried to go to it's web site. Sounds suspicious to me.

You probably need to run Ad-aware spy-bot detection software (or
equivalent).

This is spyware or at least unfortunate joke.
To fix: save the folowing as text file and open with regedit, or do manually.
Actually this fix is available on the .cc site - thanks
