This seems to be the default page on IE6.0 on my boys computer. Before I
remove it / change the home page back to google, can anyone add anything
to wat it's all about, as it's a bit suspicious to me?
The two links which it is trying to get you to click on are both java.
Version currently installed is 1.5.0_6-b05

Looking in Internet Options the Home Page address say's "Are you at
least 18 years old".

I have an idea what he's been looking at (not me honest gov!)

This does not appear on Firefox, not quite sure why he's be using IE6.0.

A bit? It's classical scam.

Oh well, please get 1.5.0_7.

And I have an idea who's system is compromised and should be
approciately treaten.

For the same reason as about 40% of the other kiddiots - they don't know
how to differ between a webbrowser and an ActiveX Rich Platform Client.
