Homepage is stuck here, and I cannot change it?
Ran CWShredder, AdAware, SpyBot. Nothing Fixes
http://www.allwebsearcher.com/1211.htm

Go to Start, right click Internet Explorer, click Internet Properties, click Security tab, click on Trusted Sites, and delete that web site if it's in there.
Also, did you run those programs mentioned above in Safe Mode?

I have done that. Same problem. The page always loads to that Allwebsearch thing. I cannot change it. It is liste in the Restricted sites, but is sill routing there when IE is opened. Tried in safe mode too.

Go to http://pjwalczak.com/spguard/index.php
and download StartPageGuard, freeware.StartPage Guard (SPG) protects your PC from cyberscam, by detecting and preventing any unauthorized changes to your internet browser's Start and Search pages. It is also capable of removing automatically most of known "invaders".
You can also do like this:
Correct your home page to the one you prefer, then immediately do the following:Backup the registry and/or export the following keys:
go to Start>Run, type regedit. Navigate to:
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\
Right-click on the Internet Explorer key, choose new>Key, name it Control Panel.
Right-click on the Control Panel, chose new>DWORD value, name it Homepage. Right-click
on Homepage, choose modify and type in the number 1.This should lock your home page, so no other web site can change it.
Then navigate here and verify the homepage is correct:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main
look for the Start Page entryBesides here are two links for you:
