    can anyone tell me how to stop my computer resetting it's homepage everytime it shuts down? I've installed the latest version of spybot and spyware blaster. After running them they tell me everything i don't want has been removed. Even though i've reset the homepage to google and deleted all temporary internet files and cookies it's still reset itself to riveria.cc and search-town.com comes up as the homepage.

    Is there anyway i can stop it?

    Any help woud be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks. o_O

    I had this problem two years ago, I learned quickly due to the help of Wilders how to edit the reg. to completely remove them... but I'm not good at giving the directions... maybe just start with a my computer file search to make sure there aren't still any folders laying around somewhere.

    Someone will come along and help further I'm sure!

    Good Luck!

    I am a very satisfied user of spywareguard.

    It protects your homepage. You really should try it ;)

    If you'd like you can read through the thread... it took me awhile to find it.

    Hi kermischocolate,

    Welcome to Wilder's!!!!!

    Go here here and follow the instructions. Since you have already ran SpyBot and/or AdAware, skip step 1 and go to step 2.

    Regards,
    Kent
