ive got a computer question and i know i should post it under computer talk but that forum doesnt get too much action and i would like to fix the problem now. i have some spyware on my homepage and i dont want it there!!! my homepage was always set to yahoo. i have macaffee and i just downloaded windows defender but its still on there. how do get this crap off? thank you!

Here's the quickest way. Stop using Windows.

dl spybot search and destroy!!!! it kills spyware and maleware

that doesnt tell me anything.

????? download spybot search and destroy.......follow the directions and press the pretty buttons and voila!!! spyware all gone!!!

first open ur eyes

Spybot Search and Destroy is a good anti-spyware program. Just google it. Or if you just have it going to the wrong home page you can change that yourself by going to Start -> Control Panel -> Netword and Internet Connections -> Internet Options and then just enter yahoo.com or whatever you want for home page. Hope that helps.

thank you all. i got it. thanks lonely walker you little smart ass

sounds like you probably have a "hijacker" get spybot and run it...that will cure the problem..just re selecting your home page will probably not fix it because it will just keep going back to the wrong one. Spybot easy to run...directions are very well written and quite simple steps

ok miss lady have you tried the yahoo anti spyware program? its free and it works pretty good but then i use ca assocates software and it takes all that junk out too

Its very common that some of the newer malware doesn't get picked up via the antispyware programs and Mcphee is substandard at best picking up malware. Windows defender is almost worthless too. First I would have to identify what you have and then I can advise you how to proceed. Probably the course of action i would start with is have you download Hijack This 1.99 and let me look at the log. If your not familiar with this it is a troubleshooting utility tool. Determing what and where it is is the first step. Sounds like a Trojan You can email me if you wish.
