Hi, i'm hoping someone can help. I'm using XP, about a month ago i noticed everytime I opened a new browser, another one popped up & if i deleted that, another popped up. Norton hasnt picked up the prop or Spyware or Adaware. I understand from speaking to people at work that my pc's been hijacked, can anyone help? I really need it to be in basic terms, pls. Many thanks, Lilian
First off assuming you are using Internet Explorer, stop that right now and download FireFox. While downloading that download and run HijackThis! Post the log it creates to this thread.
