I have got a bug from somewhere. My internet homepage keeps changing to something other than what i have always had as my home page. I have spyware software running but nothing seems to help nor can i find a solution to fix this. Any Ideas?

Stinger from McAfee, Ad-Aware, Spybot Search & Destroy, Might look on Symantec's site for the removal tools...another possible option- throw the damn thing out the Window.

What dose it go to? There are free ware programs for all most all internet hijackers. A real bad one is coolweb but there is cwshredder to remove it. You can also edit your registry to remove any Internet Explorer links to home pages. You can use programs like Window washer to remove places you have been and to clean up your hard drive. Do you use Aol or are you connected by DSL, cable? There is also a free ware program called hijack blaster that can help. After you fix your problem, get a good antivirus, firewall and run programs like Ad-aware and spybot. Update once a month or more and always update your Windows. If you do not back up important files do it now! There people out there who just want to use your computer as a way to get to others.
