unwanted site at startup...
« on: July 16, 2004, 05:24:53 AM »
Hello helpful friends,
I have a cable high speed internet hookup and I have Avast anti-virus on my computer.  When I start my computer, Outlook Explorer automatically opens, to a  really raunchy porn site.  I have to quickly close that window and re-open Explorer to go on the internet.  Is this what is known as being hijacked?
Does anyone know how I can disable this site.  It is really awful as I'm a teacher and fear turning on my computer with students around.
Thank you!!!

Try SpybotSD/Adaware/CWshredder, if you still have problems just post a Hijackthis log.
