I used the regular way to change the homepage, but it just doesn't work. I went into internet option, go under the General tab, but I can't change anything in the homepage box. The address box does not work, neither does the 3 buttons under the address box. My homepage now is locked to a website I don't even know, and it is the first thing that pop up whenever I start my computer, I have to close it first, then go on and do my own stuff. It's driving me crazy!!! HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you got hijacked.

try Adaware, Spybot S&D for starters. you might need CWShredder as well. Get Spywareblaster too. Be sure to update them before you run them.

there are lots of similar question in this forum as well as the security one on this topic.

I like your user name. You get my vote for "only honest poster of 2003". I just use my name and only my friends know I'm a moron. You advertise.

BTW, follow sonny's advice
