HELP

Well i got some kinda virus i dont know where it came from one day it just popped up on my frontpage, Ozion is usually always on my frontpage, as a default, and 2 days after a format i started my computer up as usual and this site was on frontpage, and i thought, well you just clicked one one of those "Set as default" lamer ass popup,s so i set it back to Ozion, now the problem is that i can do it over and over and after a little while maybe 3-4 hours it comes back, i tryed scanning and everything but i can find a source or a way to move this damn thing i even looked up the owner of the company and complained, and said that i would beat him and stuff like that cause this is making me sick and MAD, that such a lame thing can occure, this is what my frontpage "UrL" looks like:
res://mshp.dll/index.html#37049
The funny thing is that its something from my computer and its called lookforcc and the site is "search-about.net" so if someone have a clue or the solution for my problem PLEASE HELP PM WHATEVER YOU NEED TO DO JUST HELP ME, I HATE IT I WANT IT TO GO AWAY :\

if u know how to format your drive do that. make sure it is a complete format. what os are you running? try a new install and that will do a full format.

Try this site http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ It's a really good online virus scanner and it's free !!!!!
Trust me, I've been a couple of times :o(

thnxs for the link

Download Adaware and run that too. Great spyware program and it's free.

Yep ad-aware is a sweet program,

And only N00bs Format their pc with every little teeny weenie problem they have.

rather a spyware program then a virus. pop-ups are most of the time spyware.
hate that shit...
get rid of programs like Kazaa. they suck ass...

If you are comfortable in looking through you registry and start up items you might want to try a little program called jv16, just type it into google and you'll find it. Anyhow this lets you look through every hkey entry, start up items, add remove program and all kinds of other things. I find this very useful. Just be careful what you are deleting, it may stop your computer working all together.

I think I have the same thing...my homepage keeps going back to 3 or 4 different search engines: coolsearch, allsearch, wetsearch, & searchclub. When I google search something and click on the desired link, mine will go to those two or three times before it goes to the link!
I'll try that "ad-aware" and see if it works...thanks

i have the same problem, i'm gonna do the adaware thing too

adware does not remove it, ive tryed im using norton prof, wich is updated..so i dont have a clue, so if anyone have experienced it and removed it would like to know how

Spybot rocks. It finds spyware, then when you restart, Spybot runs before anything else and deletes the crap that other spyware programs have trouble deleting.

i had a problem similiar to this not to long go, it really pissed me off when i ran msconfig to turn it off startup, but everytime i rebooted it was back. finally i figured out it was in my startup folder in the start menu. i feel smart now. (and if you dont know what msconfig is, type it in run, it shows you every program your computer runs when it boots, plus your config.sys etc, etc) (ok maybe not config.sys but it does show you your boot.ini, win.ini, and system.ini files)
