I can't change the homepage for IE7; it keeps redirecting to Recently installed IE7 on XP Pro SP2 laptop which was cleaned from 120 plus spywares, malwares, adwares, trojans, and virus'. Cleaned with numerous tools. Tools used: Norton Antivirus removal, Norton Antivirus, AVG Antivirus, AVG Spware Removal, Webroot Spyware Removal, Registry Mechanic, MRUBlaster, and pick and delete through folders and registry. Owner didn't have original OS disks, or App disks. Cannot stop the IE page homepage from being. First in Inet Options I change to or anything else, and it redirects to with the following link: When I try to search for this in the registry the CPU heats up kicks into overdrive, the fan can't keep it cool enough and it shuts off.

I cooled it enough with a ice block and fan.don't laugh. I got to view the search of the registry but nothing was found with this key. I still can't view all of looking for in the registry without it shutting off. This may be just a prank left over from all of the mess that that removed from this box. Or it may be as destructive as phifishing. At any rate, do you have any idea how to stop it? Adware.PurityScan, 2o7.net cookie, atlas dmt cookie, remain after all the cleaning.

The ugliest path that keeps getting checked, but doesn't seem to exist in Windows or DOS mode is C: Program Files Common Files?icrosoft.NET.tracer t (part of the My Doom Trojan Horse Downloader.Generic3.CVH. Generic2.CVH was in User Local Settings Temporary Internet Files Content.IE5 57TONLD lupdate-42 95(1).0000. There are many more; like I said 120 at least. I know I should reinstall the OS (but I don't have it), nor do I want to go through all of the User apps. Sometimes homepage are locked by security programs like Norton Zone alarm, SpySweeper, Spybot S&D, Windows Live.
