this is more of an irritating problem than anything else, everytime i log onto the net I get search.central website, I would advise you not to go on there ( just like google but if it does the same to you as it is to me u be annoyed too)

Anywa yeh i thought oh there must be something tht has installed & reset my home browser to a sh@t website, so I reset it back to my old one ( freeserve ) then i close explorer & open, seems fine. I restart computer later tht day & AHHHH its back again & again & again its been on for bout a week now, its annoying its no where near as good as google so why is it bothering me. I tried searching for spyware still logs on tried lookin for it in msconfig nothing different there. Any ideas with this problem.
