lardiop Veteran Posted June 18, 2004 Veteran Share Posted June 18, 2004 Download the free version of AdAware, update it, and run. That should do the trick. Then just go and set your homepage manually and it should stay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OPaul Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Have you tried Ad-Aware and/or Spybot? http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/ http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?lang=en Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellBender Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Just because someone else will say it if I don't... Firefox, Firefox, Firefox! If you must use IE, try MyIE2 or at least use the Google toolbar with it :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhangm Supervisor Posted June 18, 2004 Supervisor Share Posted June 18, 2004 If Adaware and Spybot don't work, you can download Hijack This, and post the log here to be analyzed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redestium Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Also give SpywareBlaster a try to prevent getting that crap on your system in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
