BHBlaster just went bonkers

I installed BHBlaster last night because I'm testing something that's supposedly a browser hijacker. So I've been running Internet Exploder all night and day (shudder) waiting for something to happen.

This morning I got up and BHBlaster had gone crazy. It told me the start and search pages had been changed to <none>, fix or allow change? I tell it to fix, it goes away, then it pops the same alert up again immediately. It does this over and over and over. HijackThis didn't find any hijack and nothing had been changed. I restarted it and it quit doing it, but wtf was that all about

XP Pro (no sp1) and IE 6 (no sp1) and this is more or less what was running at the time:

Someone else reported this same error just a little while ago. I have not tracked down the problem yet but I am working on it whenever I get free time (in their case, the homepage value was actually changed to "<none>").

I'll post as soon as I figure out what it is.
