Recently, I have had a problem with something I believe may be spyware.
Whenever I open IE, I am presented with two windows, one with google, which
is my usual homepage, and one which is http://mysearchnow.com. Having
looked in my Internet settings, I find that my homepage seems to be:
http://mysearchnow.com/passthrough/index.html?http://www.google.co.uk/ which
would seem to explain this. Having changed it back to google as I want it
to be, I find that it gets changed back. Having run Spybot and AdAware, to
try and remove this beastie, I find it's still there. Can anybody out there
tell me how to get rid of this please?
Thanks in advance.
