    *First get antispyware software (spybot ) from "download.com".

    *run it . it will show some cookies that may be responsible for the spyware in ur computer.

    *note down the names of the sites to which those cookies are related.

    *goto control panel<internet options<privacy.<websites.

    type the names of these websites and click block. then ok.

    make sure the slider showing the level of internet privacy is at least at medium level.

    GOOD LUCK.

    you need to bring up your computer in safe mode first, then scan it for a virus, and spyware first. Then after running them while in safe mode still open your control panel, and go to internet connections and change your home page

    Could be that your home page has been hijacked. Run your AV and Anti-spy programs.

    My wager could be you have a deadly disease, in case your homepage is something like Myfreewebsearch. Or something that's a deadly disease. despite if it extremely is commonly used like Yahoo, then you definately could be good clicking on the incorrect icon. you could not click on a shortcut to alter the residences, you're able to desire to good click the actual .exe document
