Re: Another Virus/Hijack Removal Problem

Thanks. I plan on getting over there again Thursday and will try the removal procedures. I will post back as soon as I can.

BTW, these people use the www.iwon.com page as their home page In fact, everytime we update SpywareBlaster , I have to remove the entry in the IE Restricted Zone. To me, the page just looks like a general information page where they sign up for news , weather updates, etc. What are the nasties associated with this page?

Thanks again,
Harvey

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt.
