this web page inserted its self into internet explorer as home page and i cant get it out. I was able to get I-lookup,com out by finding all entries for it in the reg but that doesnt work for ohcorea.com. I bet there is another entry for it under a different name, constantly inserting all of its ohcorea.com/ entries into my reg every time i delete them, and thats why I cant get rid of it. cAN ANYONE HELP ME GET RID OF THIS HOME PAGE?!

It might be some sort of "Spyware". I suggest you try running Spybot and or Adaware to see if they find anything that looks like it.

Hi Rob, hwood, hi everyone,

Rob... is it your new Internet Startpage? if you try to change it, does it come back?

What is the data attached to HKCU\Software\MicroSoft\Internet Explorer\Main, Start Page valeur?

I even uninstalled IE and deleted all entries for IE in the registry, but it is still in the internet options applet of the control pannel.
I did a find for all entries of OHCOREA in the registry and deleted each instance but that didnt work either.
