404 pages, home page, and search pages have all been changed?!?!

My 404 pages have been changed to www.internet-optimizer.com pages. My search pages have been replaced. My home page is www.cool-homepage.com. I tried getting rid of cool-homepage, but it always comes back. I tried searching google to see if it was some kind of parasite or something, but cool homepage brings up a lot of crap.

it may be the qhosts virus. Go to www.sarc.com and download and run the removal tool. If it finds the virus you will then have to edit the registry and hosts files to fix it completly
