spyware thingy?
 

I seem to have some sort of spyware or trojan that keeps changing my homepage to c:\windows\secure.html, then killing my pc. Anyone come across this?

(When you delete it it reappears immediately)

Try Spybot S&D or Spy Sweeper.

you should be able to get rid if it using Hijack this

note to self- remember to update spybot instead of using version 0.5 :D


Cheers chaps - think it might be sorted now

fast bloke - you're a grade A Muppet, now back to the hutch with you :p

As well as tons of other stuff, I also use Start Page Guard which prevents anything nasty changing your homepage.
