Hi,

There is some sort of spyware on my computer that seems to change my browser homepage to http://<none>, but it is actually a search engine. Also about the same time this problem started, i began recieving pop-up ads telling me i had spyware. So far to try solve this problem i have used Spybot-S&D and Ad-aware. 6.0.



I have looked on a number of post on this site to fix this problem but so far I have not been able to get rid of this annoying spyware.

Can some please help me.

THank you

Please HELP!
