When I click on my internet explorer, I get a search page as my home page that has the URL about: blank. When I go to any website that requires me to log in, it shoots me right back to the about: blank page.

I tried the basics, like going to tools\internet options and changing, but it doesn't work.

I have Norton 2005, SpyBot search & destroy, and Ad-aware. They all pick up stuff, but still nothing happens(to this problem)when I delete.

I have tried running them all in safe mode as well with no luck.

Thanks and any help at all would be appreciated.

Try this link - it's got the manual removal method about 1/2 way down the page:
