KillerAggie,
Have a computer at work that got hijacked by about:blank. Here is the hijack this file. Help please.
Logfile of HijackThis v1.99.0
Scan saved at 11:49:56 AM, on 1/14/2005
Platform: Windows XP SP2 (WinNT 5.01.2600)
MSIE: Internet Explorer v6.00 SP2 (6.00.2900.2180)
ok, try these tools, this will stop your browser from being reset. set IE to whatever site you want after you have download some or/all of these tools.
Use spybot's immunize button and use spywareblaster' enable
protection once you update it. you can put spybot's hosts file into
your own and lock it. Plus you can also turn on spybot's tea timer
for added protection against pests.
i would also suggest switching to Mozilla's firefox browser, it's safer, has a built in pop up blocker, blocks cookies and adds.
