Hijack fixed

My home page was hijacked recently but I fixed it. I ran HJT just to make sure and it all seems okay. I fixed it by changing my home page back again in Internet Options, clearing out the references to the hijack in sysconfg, and then running spybot S&D.

Here is my HJT log for reference.

Well done Maxwell

That's a clean log indeed

Cheers,

 

Thanks and it's always nice to have that affirmed by a pro. I was a bit worried about the "03- toolbar &radio" entry so I got rid of it without any problems.
