Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windowsxp>customize (more info?)

My home page keeps changing from the one I chose to one
called Home Search. I am able to change it back, but
it's driving my nuts.

I would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Hi Lisa, Your home page for Internet Explorer has been hijacked by some sort of spyware program. The best recommendation would be to download, install and run an Anti-spyware program. You can download and run Ad-Aware: http://www.lavasoftusa.com -- Anando Microsoft MVP- Windows Shell/User http://www.microsoft.com/mvp http://www.mvps.org Folder customizations http://newdelhi.sancharnet.in/minku Protect your PC! http://www.microsoft.com/protect "Lisa" <anonymous DeleteThis @discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:13a6f01c412e6$57b5d950$a501280a@phx.gbl... > My home page keeps changing from the one I chose to one > called Home Search.

Thanks Anando. I was afraid it was something like that. I have Ad-Aware and have been running it every few days. I did also download Spybot and have only run that once (I'm not even sure I used it correctly.) Maybe I'll give that another try. >-----Original Message----- >Hi Lisa, > >Your home page for Internet Explorer has been hijacked by some sort of >spyware program.

Anando, I updated and ran both programs. They tagged a bunch of stuff and I deleted it all. When I restarted my home page reverted to the default. I think that's a good sign.
