Hi,

I have my home page set to hardocp and lately everytime I click on and launch IE it gets changed to a search page. at first I thought it may be a virus but I ran a check and it came up with nothing. Then I thought it was spyware but I downloaded spysweeper and came up with nothing.

Has anyone had this problem before and what could be the possible cause? :(

My OS is Win XP Pro

Cool WWW Search (I'd bet $5)

Get CWShredder (http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/CWShredder.exe)

Ok. I think people are starting to get rid of CWS successfully... but has anyone worked out what is causing it? I read somewhere that its an older version of Microsoft Java Machine?
