Resetting Home/start-up page in Explorer
« on: July 29, 2004, 10:36:04 AM »
Some application/exe file keeps resetting my internet explorer home page.  I tried resetting it in internet options, but as soon as I do, it is "automatically reset.  I'm assuming there is a program running in the background resetting it immediately back to this wacky page.  Any ideas?

Thanks, Bill ???

hey Bill,
I'm gonna copy and paste this from a previous reply I made, but it is entirely pertinent to your problem.

Sounds like your experiencing an all out 'browser hijack'!  You should use a friends internet connected computer with CD-burner to download each of the programs in our Internet Essentials pak.  http://www.totalaccesssolutions.com/modules.php?name=Downloads.  Not only will you regain control of your expensive system, you will be the envy of your friends and family.  Or at least get some sort of software in each of the following categories.  Firewall, antivirus, anti-spyware, and pop-up blocker.  Thank you for your question!
