    WTF is wrong with my computer?? HELP!!

    Fellas,

    Ive got these sites that somehow attached itself to my computer called enjoys##rch.com and getthis4fr##.com.

    The have become my homepage no matter what I do. I went in the internet options to change it but when I restart the computer it comes back.


    Same goes for some websites in my Favorites folder. I have webcam, porn, casino, drug links, etc. And when I delete them their gone. But when I shut my comp down and start it up they always come back.

    I have windows 98, Ive tried all the control panels and add/remove programs, and my thing is still messed up.


    WHAT DO I DO???!!!!

    I run both Adaware and Spybot...no probs anymore.

    I had one prob with searchexe.com - but there's an uninstall utility on their site that can clean you up...

    Try downloading and running this one...

    Sometimes this will pick up stuff ad-aware misses

    upgrade to windows xp pro if your system can handle it..

    spybot

    you have been hacked... what anti virus software are you running..

    you can try to do alt/ctrl/del and check for software that is running.. stop all that shouldn't be..

    it has set is self up in your start up file, and will be hard to remove....

    if you are on a cable, or dsl.......... you are a host zombie... the internet world thanks you..........
