I set up the IE home page to www.google.com through
internet options. But when I open IE next time, the home
page is not www.google.com instead of it is C:\Program
Files\First2Enter\Portal.html. I can't find anywhere to
uninstall it, then I delete this foder. But next time
open IE, the home page still is the same thing. I don't
know where it came from and how to get rid of it.

Thanks all reply.

Start with AdAware from http://www.lavasoftusa.com/ - download and install
it, then update it, then clean everything it finds and restart when done.
You may need to clean again after the restart, or restart in Safe Mode and
clean, to get rid of all stubborn pests.

You may also want to use Spybot Search&Destroy from
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html since it can find and destroy
some pests that AdAware doesn't, and vice-versa. Again, download and
install, update, then clean as above.
