Prosearching.com / Easy Search
 

I have several problems that are driving me crazy and only know enough about computers to be dangerous, so any help given is so greatly appreciated. One problem is the prosearching and easy search. I have downloaded spysweeper and it is apparently catching these items, because I continually receive the notification that my homepage has been changed - click yes to allow or no to return homepage to bellsouth. Is there a way to stop it all together? Hijackthislog:
