All i know is that know is that going to internet options and setting the default homepage is useless. Spammers simply get in and take u somwhere else. I would like to know what to do about this problem too. I have downloaded a program called Home Page Monitor 1.0. It is a freeware and seems to be working so far. I believe that the software goes into IE and sets the homepage to what you have specified each time you open IE. I wonder if there is a way to keep the spammers out completely so that they can never change the homepage in the first place. I just hate spam its a privacy violation!!!!
