being hijacked

by ffontan1 . Updated 22 years ago

I have XP Home Edition on a HP Laptop. I am using PeoplePC as the internet provider which is connected using a dialup modem to PeoplePC.

I am experiencing two problems.

1.) The home page is being hijacked by other pages. I have gone to internet explorer and set it for PeoplePC but after it is hijacked I have to go back and reset the internet explorer back to PeoplePC’s home page each time. Is there a way of locking this? or do you have another suggestion on how to keep this from happening.

2.) The other problem is the tool bar. I want to know khow to delete a toolbar and set up another and lock that also so that it will be the same. For Example: If I download Yahoo Toolbar or PeoplePC toolbar it disappears and another tool bar takes over. Do you have suggestions on how to delete a toolbar and set up one of these others and lock it so that it cannot be changed. I have downloaded both toolbars but they seem to be taken over by another toolbar which I didn’t download infact the downloaded Toolbars that I want to use do not even appear only for a short time in the tools section and then disappear like they were never downloaded.

Please answer with step by step instructions on how to correct these two areas.

I Appreciate your help.
