Hijacked

I tried this fix by downloading, installing and running, as well as paying for, the
Hijack Blaster. It didn't work! But I found something called "hijackthis" which downloaded
in seconds and cleaned out my files in a snap.
If you go to your Web options, go to homepage options and click on default, you'll
see the numbers for the website you've been hijacked to.
Write those down. then, when you run hijack this, look for those same numbers on
the list, mark the box next to them, and delete. I found those numbers if five separate
entries.
It worked!

Are these options you mention part of HihackThis?

I would suggest that you boot into the Option Menu and select "Last Known Good Configuration"
and roll back to prior to loading Hijack. This may give you a second chance.
