certain web pages are redirected
« on: August 09, 2004, 04:55:42 AM »
hey guys,

i hope you can help me. I use a shareed computer so i dont always know whats going on all the time therefore im not sure of the cause of this problem.
Recently i've had an overload of pop ups + my home page has been hijacked. this is annoying but more of a problem is that hotmail has also been hijacked therefore when ever i log it im redirected to a different page. the page im directed to is auto:blank if that helps.

MY knowledge of computers isnt helping me at all so if anyone can help i would much appreciate that. Thanks
ciaran

Scan for Adware.

Search through the sticky named 'Please Read This First - Viruses & Spyware at the section 'Viruses & Spyware'

Download the recommend programs. This should solve your problem.
