Browser piracy - HELP!
Discussion
Folks, my PC has been the victim of a bit of Internet Browser piracy, and some sort of bug/virus/programme has infected my Internet Explorer 6 and changed the homepage to http://cool-homepage.com/ and greyed out the section in Internet Options that allows you to adjust the homepage - so I can't change it back!
I have tried Spybot - Search and Destroy, and also tried reinstalling IE6, but nothing worked. It's still there!
Also, not sure if this is connected, but I can't now run my Norton AntiVirus 2002 software as the app starts but then immediately closes ( after about 1 second).
HELP.

Try "Hijack This" - http://mjc1.com/mirror/hjt/
Thanks squirrelz, I needed this too as the bug simply reappeared after initially using the start page guard program.
