[quote author=“VAIO Jet”]Has anyone else had their browser “hijacked” by this nuisance home page. I have run: Ad-Aware; Spybot; Registry Mechanic; PcBugDoctor; and PC-Cillan. I can not get rid of it. I keep resetting my home page to “Default” and after a minute or two on the web it resets itself to “About:Blank” and then opens to a poorly designed search site. I have found a few on line suggestions on other forums but none of their suggestions worked. I am now presenting my problem to the “Brain trust” on this forum (where so many other problems have been solved). Thank you for any advise you have.
