Website taking over home page

Comment:

Hello. A website keeps on setting it's self to my home page in Internet Explorer. Everytime I go into internet options and set my home page back to what I want, It will stay that way for a while and then that website takes over the home page again....I think it's some adware. I have a adware program and updated it, but did not get rid of that. Any clues on how to get rid of that. like going into the regedit file.....Adam
