Don't know if is this the right forum for this question
but can someone help? My Home page has been invaded by a search engine called secret crush which is quite pornographic. Whatever I do I can't get rid of it. I've tried the Internet Options menu to change my home page back to what it was - but it will not work. I've tried registering the site in the restricted access part of Internet Explorer but it doesn't work. Nothing will get rid of it.I have windows XP home edition. Can anyone help? |

As Jon stated, Lavasoft works well. You may also want to go to
www.panicware.com, download and install the free version of PopUp Stopper. It will stop those popup ads. -- Steve C. Ray Replace "mail" with "36db" "Tara Barker" wrote in message ...
