My homepage has been hijacked. I went to the microsoft knowledge base and
checked the three keys they suggested in the registry, currently it indicates
msn.com (www). Some "security" software has my homepage and it wants me to
download their 49.00 software to get rid of it.
Always remember - only download files from Trusted Sites.
The following links will take you to vendors sites for Spy Ware / Ad
ware removal tools and also for Antivirus tools. After you install any
of these applications and update them, run them in SAFE MODE to allow
them to properly clean your system.
First, make sure that your Java is updated to the latest version:

These sites are for downloading Anti-Malware and Anti-Spyware tools, in
order that I would use them myself:
Dave Lipman's tools:
Download MULTI_AV.EXE from the URL --

AdAwareSE can be found here:

SpyBot Search and Destroy can be found here:
