    I have the latest version of SpywareBlaster installed and I set the Misc. IE Settings/Internet Explorer Restrictions checkbox so that the IE Home page couldn't be changed (I thought). Today, it has been changed to http://search.bearshare.com/. When I look at Tools/Internet Options it is still greyed out but http://search.bearshare.com/ is in it instead of my homepage.

    Any ideas?

    Hello Tex1,

    The SB Home page protection is for protection locally to your machine. Meaning....no one can sit at your PC and change the Home page via IE\Tools\Internet Options\Home Page section.

    If you feel there are other issues hidden, I would suggest picking a forum in the link below for some one on one help with possible browser hijack and/or malware problems.
