Home page problem
 
My homepage has been set to http://mysearchnow.com/
I've tried changing it to me preferred page in the usual way
(tools/options/home page/use current) but when I close MS explorer and
reopen it it returns to http://mysearchnow.com/ instead
How can I get rid of this -it's a useless page and very irritating?
TIA

Hi

Your homepage may have been hijacked.

Try this program:
HijackThis
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/

And you might want to fix your clock/time zone. You are posting from
the past.

His posting date/time looks like here (14-11-03 22:33) .....?
