home page hijacked

hezi · Guest

Hi,

My IE home page was hijacked by some tipe of a search engine.
The hijacker is controling my 'about:blank' and keeps changing the home page definition to be 'about:blank'.
When I try to go to google for example, from this page, I can't.
I have Norton Antivirus 2002 running on my PC and it detects nothing.
Some time it detect a script cold sysh.htm which I can't get rid of.
When I try to go to google while in this 'about:blank' page, by typing the address in the address line, I get a page saing it is un recognized address and I can see in the address line that actually google is being searched by - www.onestepsearch.biz.

Can you help with it?

Thanks

Unzip the download (using a piece of software like: Winzip)

When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button.
Press that, save the log in a text file, and post it in the CCSP "Spyware - Hijack Related" forum:
