Have you had it just appear out of nowhere as your homepage on your computer?

razzle, you need to run all your spyware and adware programs. even your anti virus. sounds like you got something. i'll be back on later and i will check a website that lists these spoof type of "things" worms, spyware...that can get in your computer.

Thanks, curious.
I didn't want to say too much until I knew more, but there are two Trojans in particular that I was wondering about that were around a few years back. W32/Vote-A Type * Worm Aliases * W32/Vote@MM * W32.Vote.A@mm * WTC Vote.A redirects the start page of Internet Explorer to a particular yahoofs address and does a number of other things. There's also a Vote-B. Hopefully razzle will come back soon and tell us what's going on. I'll check in from time to time today when I can. |

I've been having issues with my own computer- so I sympathize will all of you! I had to reinstall XP about 5 times , reformat part of the hard drive, plus I was trying to get a wireless card to work with my dual boot OS of Linux on the second harddrive - so I feel like I was going in circles for about 2 weeks.
