What the ****!

That site is now my homepage. I gain that site after doing one of the offer which was whitesmoke and the other was some grammerwriter, you have to download to finish the offer.
Now I'm trying to remove this. WTF!?
Anyone have this problem? Know how to solve it?

Post ASAP please

Wow I'm not going to do any of those dam download links.

[admin edit: please take it easy on the curses, even if two letters are switched around]

Go to the page that you want to be your home page.

Go to "Tools"   (Upper right side of internet page if you use IE)
Click on Internet Options

In the General Section, at the top, is a place to create your home page -- which will have you current (incorrect) home page.

Click on "Use current" and follow the instructions.

You may have to close the browser and log off the PC to have the change locked in.  It's been a while since I've had to do this -- so if it doesn't work to your satisfaction, read through the instructions and try again.

If you're using a browser other than IE, you can access the Internet Options window via the Control page in your start menu.

Hope this works for you.  If you had to make adjustments, add your comments to this blog so we know what works.

Yes you didn't click off the little box that said do you want this to be your home page. Just go to your homepage the thing that looks like the house and change it back to what you had.    It has an option in there to delete it and to change it back or go to your internet options and under the general tab type in what you had or change it to the default then type in what you want it to be from there in your address bar then click on the house and tell it to save as home page  Hope this helps :cat:

Hopefully I did remove it but still, after I uninstall it, it was still there. Even if I did the little arrow thing, it wasn't the same before I changed it. Example if I typed a address like fusioncash, I'll have to click it again in order to go to the site. Before whenever I type fusioncash, I would go directly to the site.

I had to use Hijackthis to remove it completely(hopefully).
