Hi

If you have already virus-checked your system, and found nothing, try the
following programs to see if there is any spyware on your system:

Ad-Aware - www.lavasoftusa.com
Spybot - http://www.safer-networking.org/
CWShredder - http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html

| sometimes i find that my homepage has been changed to a figure like a
squashed D and no matter what it will not changed or be deleted. When i go
to regedit  and go to HKCurrentUser/software/microsoft/internet
explorer/main is will not allow me to to do so it just says error opening
page. If I reboot the computer it clears and alls well again. This problems
occurs no matter which user has been on the computer and it only my homepage
that appears to be infected, and not other users/accounts of family users.
