I've been having exactly the same problem with the browsers being
hijacked and sent to www.eebuy.co.uk and as above i've just deleted the
user profiles and this seems to stop the problem.

But i'd like to find out what's causing the problem, any ideas?

For info, I managed to get System File Checker started only for it to
ask for the XP Pro CD. Of course, no media CD was distributed with the
PC so now I'm stuck again.

Did you delete all local profiles as well as the server copy?

I also tried to uninstall / reinstall IE as per this article for MS:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318378

but got stuck at the System File Checker step. Even when logged in as
admin this doesn't do anything - well a program runs and then exits
the
console so no feed back is gained.
