I don't know how this happened but this strange website
has sort of taken over my home page and keeps adding
other strange websites to my favorites. It's called easy
search and the URL is ABOUT:BLANK. The other sites that
it adds to my favorites are: Best Search, Casino, Gift
Certificate, Pop Up Blocker, Spyware Removal, Viagra, Web
Hosting. Just a few minutes ago I tried to send this
request and some porno pictures popped up and would not
let me send this so I'm sending it again. Sometimes but
not all the time if I open Hotmail those same pictures
pop up. I have scanned and deleted with SPYHUNTER and
with Norton Antivirus. Any help would be greatly
appreciated....Thanks a million.

There are many programs that are free to help with this. Here is a list of the ones I use and all you will have to do is a search for the best download site nearest you. SpywareGuard, SpwareBlaster, Spybot Search and Destroy, Adaware, BHODemon and HijackThis. These should all help in removing your spyware\adware and in the case of SpywareGuard will protect your system from having it's home page and or search pages from being hijacked again.
