:cry: Ok well here it goes i need some computing help. When i came home from work today i found my girlfriends brother on the puter, guess what he was looking at??(thats right... PRON) anyway i told him to close it and leave it alone (the pron that is, not other things, but thats another story). So he did, but he said when he went to close it it came up with a msg saying "would you like to make such 'n' such (webpage, wont repeat it) as your home page he clicked no, but then it kept coming up asking and everytime he said no it kept coming up.:cry: Anyway i got on to have a look by this time i was getting crabby. So i started clicking franticly, and accedently clicked yes (GRRRRR). So now when i open up internet explorer it comes up with some crap bout internet security, and i cant change the homepage back again.:cry:

Now everytime i close I/Explorer it comes up with one of those microsoft message things!!:cry:

God i hope there aint a Virus on here now. If there is how do i go about fixing it!!

Anybody, anybody who can help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx guys

ANYBODY!!!

Hate to say it, but i think there is a virus on the computer, time to get all those mates of yours that have any knowledge about computers around to sort it out

run spybot, run antivirus. download a program called hijackthis and see what is running on your computer.

also, try a system restore. take your computers settings back to a date before the horny bugger got on your pc.

yeah definately use mozilla. IE6 is bad, but IE7 is just horrible.

to get to system restore, just go to start, programs, accessories, system tools, system restore. just pick whatever date and time you think is best

Whats wrong with IE7? I use it and I find it ALOT better than IE6. Its much more secure with the phishing filter etc. and finally has tabbed browsing, built in pop-up blocker etc. etc.

it messed up my computer bad. was incompatable with just about everything. couldnt use msn with proxy settings after installing it. even the new live messenger has problems. microsoft just wont accept anyone using anything other than internet explorer.
friend of mine just had the same problem and he couldnt even get rid of it. he had to do a system restore just to get it off his computer.
and it just looks horrible too. worst interface ive ever seen for a web browser.
