I have Windows Vista and IE9.
Everytime I change my homepage to Google, it gets changed back to http://isearch.fantastigames.com/
See attachment of logs

It is a browser hijacker.
Step 1: Open your Task Manager by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del. Then end the related process of Isearch.fantastigames.com/440.
Random.exe
Step 2: Reset your browser settings. (Take IE as example)
Open Internet Explorer. Click on the Tools menu and then select Internet Options. In the Internet Options window click on the Advanced tab. Then click on the Restore Defaults button and then press OK.
Step 3: Search and delete following files.
%Appdata%\Local\random.exe
%ProgramData%\Internet Explorer\xhebftts.dll
%AllUserProfile%\Windows\Desktop\ Isearch.fantastigames.com/440.lnk

It is a browser hijacker.
Step 1: Open your Task Manager by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del. Then end the related process of Isearch.fantastigames.com/440.
Random.exe
Not there, doesn't seem to exist.
Step 2: Reset your browser settings. (Take IE as example)
Open Internet Explorer. Click on the Tools menu and then select Internet Options. In the Internet Options window click on the Advanced tab. Then click on the Restore Defaults button and then press OK.
Did that already, several times, doesn't help. If you go into Internet Options in Control Panel, it states that the default is Google, but once you bring up Internet Explorer, it still redirects to Isearch.fantastigames.com
Step 3: Search and delete following files.
%Appdata%\Local\random.exe
%ProgramData%\Internet Explorer\xhebftts.dll
%AllUserProfile%\Windows\Desktop\ Isearch.fantastigames.com/440.lnk
