Help please I'm despeate here Quote
Banshee0028 Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 Are you using the Latest spyware definitions? If not make sure you are updating them EACH time before you scan your pc. Other than that, you might simply be clicking on a spyware link that changes your home page. Have you set the home page back and it still changes? How long does it take to get set back? Have you done a full virus scan to make sure there is nothing else on your pc? Quote
