Which Internet Explorer are you using? Which page does it change to? Sounds like you are in Windows and have accidentally (?) downloaded or executed something. Try running Adaware or Spybot to clear it from your system.

i found something called spyware nuker. i'll use it - hope it works

thanx.

No probs - Adaware and Spybot are 2 progs I have used. It has been recommended to me that you use 2 anti-spyware progs because often they don't always pick up all of the spyware.

Hopefully though, you'll just have the spyware nuked and forgotten about.

One of the many reasons to not use IE or Windows.. ;)

Yes indeedy, Trickykid.

One of the many reasons I use Mozilla when using Windows.
