Browser (IE7) hijackedI have tried desperately, but in vain to remove the starting web page when I
connect to IE. The usual method via INTERNET OPTIONS just doesn't work. The errant page is http://search.bearflix.com/ and it simply won't go away although I removed the source program some time ago. There must be some rascal program that keeps resetting this address. I have searched several times for it, but it seems to be well hidden. I know others have this same problem so there must be a solution for it. Thanks for any suggestions -- CinciDave Crossposted to the microsoft.public.security.homeusers
