I have encountered a worm or something that keeps taking over my home page on IE its a search page with nothing but porn listed. I've done all I can to delete it but it keeps coming back. It's called greatsearch.biz Can someone suggest a way to destroy it? Norton didnt help and neither did Hijackthis ir cwshredder. I found away to close the back door on IE but I canot find HKEY files on this computer.
Thanks
Deborah

Make sure you have all the latest updates for your anti-virus, adaware, and cwshredder 1.57.0 also go here
and download Spybot. Run all those apps. Then run HJT again and make sure when you run HiJackThis thats it not in a temp folder and after running the above apps. post your log here. One of our techs will take a look at it.
