Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners OT-MY PC IS SICK

my NT system has either a virus, which cannot be detected by software, or spyware. my homepage keeps defaulting to a search page even after re-setting. i have tried ad-aware 6.0 but the program will only quarantine, but not delete the files. many other programs are not for NT. can you computer guys help?
thanks

1.) Clean your History, cookies and temp files.
2.) Update your virus software.
3.) Windows update
4.) I like "spy-bot search and Destroy". I works very good.

Hope this helps.

Go to the site I gave you.

I have the same problem with windows XP home. I've tried all the suggestions so far without success. Ressetting finally ended up with the msn default page as the permanent home page. I'm now waiting for service pack 2 in the hope I can clean this up.

thanx, will try it after i finish my purchase order. thank heaven for a risc box.

Try creating a new user account to see if it's profile based. If not, then you probably have a piece of software thats causing the issue.
