computer problem

I was wondering if anyone can help me out. I recently went to www.warez.com just to look around and now my computer is acting like a bastard. Everytime I use the search key on Explorer all this crazy shit happens. First, instead of getting the normal search engines on the left of the page I get a porn site, second, it changes my home page to another porm site, thirdly, it adds three porn/illegal download sites to my favorites list, and finally, it opens up numerous windows with porn sites every once in a while. I was just wondering if anyone can help me out. Thanks for any help you can offer.

Re: computer problem

well, the easiest way is to reinstall explorer, but there should be a way to reconfigure all thet somewhere in the settings.

No don't do that
maybe he is new to computers

if u are using IE just go to tools at the top and
then to internet options - you can change your homepage
back to whatever it was before right at the top (like
www.yahoo.com) - that should stop all of those pop ups
too

and just delete the bookmarks by editing your favorites

theres an easier way guys.

just hit ctrl-alt-del , and close any instance (window) of internet explorer that isnt responding.
as soon as you close one, all windows shut down sweet ass

Damn, some of you boys are negative. I've changed my homepage back about 100 times, it still ends up going to the porn. I've erased the ones added to favorites about 100 times and they still get added. I've deleted my temp internet files too and that didn't do shit. Neon, I live at burnamthorpe and dixie. Thanks for your help

Hey you Drunk! j/k

I think everyone's just playing around, don't take our joke too serious. You might have to reinstall your browser, maybe get "Ad-Ware" and check if it's a spyware that's a DLL file. If all else fails, your stuck with porn when load up (don't invite your girlfriend over to do a paper, haha), or you're stuck with.......... format C:

good luck
