hijacked

[ellla]

Hi, My browser has been hijacked, initially the problem was solved with spybot S&D when I could still change back to my preferred homepage, but now I cant change the homepage at all, I have also tried ad-aware. Any help appreciated!

Hi ella,

Did you also use the Immunize section of Spybot S&D ?
Check the screenshot in the last post of this thread: http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=17397

Easy way out, have HijackThis fix this item:

Hi Pieter,

Thanks for replying, I checked the spybot immunize section, but I didn't have the IE bit on my screen, also I lost my hijack this downlaoad (must have done it in winzip or something) and I'll try again tomorrow.

Thanks ella

Hi ella,

Did you check in your Unzipped folder for HijackThis?

Regards,

Pieter
