Please help. I just registered with you and I am pretty new at this and try to be computer literate, but I'm not to up on the technical lingo, so please go easy on me
I am having a problem and I think Spywareblaster was supposed to help with this but it has not. Each and everytime I log on to the computer, my homepage is changed. It is such a hassle to have to go to Internet Options each time to change it back to what I want. It is always changed to this address: www.searchv.com/w/ Could you please try to help me with getting this problem fixed. Isn't spyware blaster supposed to stop this from occuring? Thank you very much in advance!! |

Hi kelcal,
The option HardCore mentioned is the most likely one. If that doesn't help or you don't know how to do that, please follow these instructions: Please go to http://www.tomcoyote.org/hjt/, and download 'Hijack This!'. Unzip, doubleclick HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan". When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button. Press that, save the log as a .txt file, and copy and paste its contents into your next post. Most of what it lists will be harmless, so do not fix anything yet. Regards, Pieter

I advised to remove it because it offers no real protection against hijackers and is a nuisance if you want to change the settings yourself. That should do it. Regards, Pieter
