Not sure if I have a virus or what, but something keeps changing my homepage to something else. We have the McAfee virus scan installed, but keep getting the same pop-ups and our homepage always gets switched back to another page that doesnt seem to go away. Anybody have this problem before?

I could be wrong but...
Has it jacked your search engine as well and changes it to a search engine of it's own???
The same thing happened to me. I downloaded "Spybot Search and Destroy", it's free. After you install it and let it run a scan of you files you will be amazed at all the spyware and trackerware that is loaded on your computer. Follow the instructions, and you will end up with a clean machine. Another cool feature is you can imunize your computer against these programs so they won't attach themselves again. It has worked wonders for me. Another benefit is you will see your spam count drop.

I heard they have a way of doing that
Your have been hi-jacked...These programs will change you registry to use their own search engines and home pages. download these 2 free programs. They are safe. Spybot should reset your registry to allow you to reset you home page and default search engine. These are both excellent programs. Mike
