Whenever I open Internet Explorer 6.0, it automatically
(meaning to where I can't change it no matter what I do)
sets the home page as "%68%6F%6D%65%70%61%67%65%2E%63%6F%
6D%00@%77%77%77%2e%65%2d%66%69%6e%64%65%72%2e%63%63". I
don't know how that got there. I'm thinking that there
might be a corrupted file that got into the Internet
Explorer folder in 'My Computer' on my desktop but I'm
just not sure if thats the case and if it is, I'm not
sure how that happened. I also get an IE popup window all
the time that says "Ad Serve". If anyone out there has
any ideas on how to get this problem fixed, please email
me at bmwfan01@bellsouth.net.

Thank you.
