Somehow some fecking **** site has made it so that whenever I open my browser it opens at my normal homepage (Google) but it has added toolbar and also opens a little search browser at the bottom of the page.

I keep re-setting my homepage in the options meny and it stops for the day, but when I turn on the next day it's back.

It's called something like "seao" and the toolbar is called "rrgrkfckbrn" and I can't delete it.

I have cleared my cookies and temp files but it keeps coming back.

Can anyone tell me how to get rid of this permanently.

Cheers.

Jason.

Download adaware. http://www.lavasoft.de/ it'll most likely find and remove it.

Cool

Spybot is brilliant, I couldn't believe the amount of stuff it picked up that ad-aware missed.
