Each time I get onto internet explorer I'm immediately
taken to a website (porn) that I never asked for and now
cannot remove!! Then I'm booted off!! How frustrating.
Is there something I can do to use my internet again? If
anyone has a suggestion, please help. Thank you very
much.

Under tools, internet options, you can change what your home page is..

I take it you have tried to change your home page to something else? If you
have done that and it still takes you to that undesired page, it would
appear to me that you have had a script run on your system that change the
homepage back to a specific site. Look in the add/remove for any strange
entry, it would appear to me if this is the case, if this does not work let
me know and I'll tell you how to check other things.
