O.P. Dodgy  Internet home page trouble
I'm having a problem with setting my home page with IE. Here's the thing:

I go to internet options to set my home page. I usually put it at someting like msn.ca or msn.com.  But now, when I put in any home page site, and press ok, it automatically changes to about:blank and then when i open my browser, it takes me to some site with all these popups. I  know this MIGHT be some adware/spyware but ive had adware before and it never did anything like this...
