 I should add ... run The home of Spybot-S&D! on your system and see what it throws up ... close your browsers when you're running it ... (also download the dictionary files ... at least I think thats the term) it'll tell you what any of the nasties on your machine are.

| Same happened to me a while ago (browser hacked). Unnessary Step I was in a bad mood so I verbally attacked the website owner after tracking DNS details and then threatened action under the Data Protection Act 1988 How I Fixed It (Best not use the first step above) Clear IE7 Browsing History From the Command Line :: the How-To Geek Try using command prompt, it rips everything out without even running your browser to reset settings, etc. Cheers, B

| I used to be an AVG fan but now I'm Avast! all the way. For those pathetic operating systems that need such things, of course. |

| I run AVG Free on my PC laptop but lately it's not really picking up much. Either my machine is clean as a whistle (unlikely seeing as it's a PC  ) or as I suspect, hackers have learned how to bypass AVG. I have heard this ona number of occasions and it is starting to make sense to me now.My mate just bought CA with his new laptop and says it picked up hundreds of viruses that AVG didn't pick up on his old desktop (you can run CA on up to 3 machines). I think I'll switch soon! |

haven't actually heard of it .. just upgraded the my nod32 subscription ... to ESET Smart Security as my subscription was up. So far so good .. though I've head the anti spyware / malware isn't that great in it ... still it was as cheap to get the full suite as it was to get nod32 for me .. I'll let you know if my machine blows up due to it  |

| The browser hijack is most likely somewhere in your startup items. Download hijack this or hopefully this might help: PCtechnix.ie - Internet Security |
