Hijacking of home Page/access to hotmail
 
When I try and access my hotmail account, I keep being diverted after a few seconds as it loads the page, it reverts to the following address :http://super-spider.com/hp.htm?id=80
It also keeps resetting my home page in internet explorer options to this address after I change it and will also not let me access certain websites
I have installed and run Ad-aware and also used trendmicro housecall and all of them report no virus or adware present although when I ran them first they found and remove signifcant amounts of virus's and trojans and adware.
CAn any one tell me how to solve this problem.

My computer is a 1700 Celeron running windows XP home edition.

Thanks

:sad: Danny

Read the "Spyware" topic linked in my sig, please and follow the advice there. Using simply an Antivirus product and one malware removal product isn't enough nowadays, I'm afraid.
