Before you read below...do not click on the link that I put in because I think it could do the same to your PC that it did to mine.

LL owners, be careful of the sites that you open when you validate sites...I am pretty sure that this is how my PC got infected.

Somehow, I think it happened while validating sites submitted to my LL, some shitbag reset my default homepage in Internet Explorer to this: res://mshp.dll/index.html#37049 ...and I can't change it. I go into ie, tools, Internet Options, programs, and hit "Reset Web Settings" and it will do it temporarily. When I restart my computer that res://mshp.dll/index.html#37049 is back as my default.

I've run the latest Spybot Search and Destroy to no avail.

Does anyone know how to reset my default home page so this spyware goes away. Is there anything else that I need to look at on my PC?

Thanks!
