    Spyware Guard is informing me everytie I switch the computer on that something is trying to change my MSIE home page from www .mysearchnow.com/searchbar.html to www.google.com but my homepage isn't mysearchnow and I don't want it to be either that or google. Hence, neither option, to reject (implying my home page may change to mysearchnow) or accept fits, so I cancel the window, only to have it reappear next time. What should I do?

    Hi Harrier_man, and welcome to the Forum.

    Since this is a known hijacker, your best bet would be to go to one of the spyware removal forums and post a HijackThis log for analysis by a spyware removal Expert.

    Since we no longer provide hijackthis log review here at Wilders, you can find a list of sites that still do perform this type of log analysis and system cleaning in this link: http://a-sap.org/

    Two of the bigger forums for HijackThis log processing, (meaning they process more log threads each day than many others) are: SpywareInfo.com and CastleCops.com.

    Regards,

    snap
