- Explorer and virus
- Posted by Shar on October 12th, 2005
Hi,
Upon opening my computer I now get Explorer starting up and going to the
website kkk7.com which is not only a chinese site that I do not understand
but it takes a long time to download.
My home page has been changed to that site and the fields in Options are not
bold and cannot be changed.
I have run Norton, spyware and nothing changes.
Does anyone know anything about this?
Shar

I'll bet $1,000 that you have a virus and/or spyware.
