Hey, my mother and I have been having a fit with Internet Explorer and this obnoxious little glitch that keeps automatically changing her homepage to www.positivehomepage.com. She said she originally visited this site in a link that was sent to her in an email from one of her friends, but her homepage has been irreversibly set to that site ever since. I've tried to get rid of it and change it back to good ol' Yahoo. I'm savvy enough to know my way around a computer, and I went into IE 7 and reset the homepage back to www.yahoo.com and, and subsequently run multiple spyware/virus/adware scans on the computer to try to detect the cultprit, but with no resolve. It keeps automatically resetting itself back to Postive Homepage as soon as I close the browser and open a new one. I'm at a loss. I have no clue what Postive Homepage is except that it says it's somekind of Christian site, but I think it put a virus on my mom's computer and I want to know how to get rid of the damn thing for good.
