internet explorer by toddy on 06-13-2004 at 08:13 PM

can someone please help me !!!!
when i open internet explorer, http://searchpage.cc/ always comes up, no matter wot i put as my home page, this comes up. when i got back to my options to change the home pages it says "http://%6E%6B%76%64%2E%75%73" is my home page. can someone please tell me wot is wrong

[edit]
i have found another problem. when i input a web site e.g. www.mess.be and press enter, instead of putting http://www.mess.be, it puts http://searchpage.cc/www.mess.be, this means that it doesn't load mess.be it loads a search page

it's propably spyware or adware that you have. Try Ad-aware and Spybot S&D

is it free ? and do u have a link ? and is it good ?
the last spyware checker software i had, actually seem to give me spyware rather then take any off my computer, so i don't really like them

RE: internet explorer by Kryptonate on 06-13-2004 at 09:10 PM

yeah, it's good :) it are the best known anti-adware, - spyware programs around.

Ad-aware: http://www.lavasoftusa.com
Spybot S&D: http://www.safer-networking.org/

both are free.
