My home page has been hijacked by about:blank. The home page changes to a new home page that advertises many adware type programs with constant pop ups that also advertise adware programs. I can change it back to my preferred home page but soon it changes back to about:blank with the pop ups. The pop ups also appear on sites I regularly visit and this is when the home page seems to change. Below is my hijackthis log:

Reboot into safe mode following the instructions here & navigate to & delete the following:

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\FBJJK.DLL< file
C:\WINDOWS\TEMP< folder contents

In order to view these files you may have to select 'show hidden files/folders.' Instructions on how to here.

Still in safe Close all (browser) windows & rescan with hijackthis. When the scan is finished place a check in the box to the left of the following entries & click 'fix checked':

I have not browsed the Internet yet so I don't know if the problem has been corrected as yet. Let me know if I need to do anything else at this time.

Thank You!

Another note, after adding SpywareBlaster and SpywareGuard, resetting security as instructed by programs, and deleting the items you suggested I tried to log on to Classmates.com and received an error message that said: "The current security settings do not allow me to send HTML forms". What do I need to change to correct this problem?

Thank you!
