darvin w. gray, that is a ploy (like pop ups, etc.) they use to get you to view their page. (you might BUY something???) I think you will find they have made an entry in your registry which alters your homepage at each bootup. You can prevent homepage highjacking here AFTER you clean out the culprit in your registry.
