For some reason i can't change my web home page. When ever i change it to my desired page it automatically changes back the next time i go online.
Also, when i go into Control Panel and click any of the icons the window will appear for a split second then disapear! This means i can't uninstall or add hardware or do anything in control panel.

Try getting Adaware and do a system scan with an antivirus.
