The problem I have is that my homepage is set to
Supanet.com and yesterday I clicked on a link which was
some IQ test web page which required you send an SMS to a
number (cost of £4.50) to receive a unique pin to access
it. Obviously I refused to pay this money for just a bit
of fun, so I canceled the web page and continued
surfing. However, I noticed on the tool bar at the top
of the screen a couple of new icons had appeared. I
promptly deleted them an carried on. However, each time
I log onto the net my home page appears only to have
seconds later a web page called cybertrigger.co.uk pops
up and launches additional IQ test pop up web page
appears. When I look on tools IQ test and Erotic are now
in the drop down menu. I have searched my pc for
anything relating to cybertrigger and nothing can be
found. I have checked on the properties of my internet
explorer and Supanet is listed as my home page... can
anyone suggest where these two rogue sites may be to keep
triggering this pop up each time I log on.

Cheers
