Title: homepage updating thing
Post by: imafobob on September 14, 2003, 14:04

Hello

I have this problem with IE which I cant fix. It keeps automatically changing my homepage to www.777.com, which is some sort of gambling site. Does anyone know how I can stop this?


Thanks

Have you tried running Ad Aware or a spyware remover?

The answer to your problem is to download StartPageGuard which will not only allow you to get your home page back, but prevent it from being hijacked again in the future.  You can download it from here:
