What is the default page now? Have you tried this, Open FireFox, go to Tools> Options. Here click "General" tab, and there click "Use Blank Page" or type the Web site address of your choice and click "OK".

Hmm..that's curious!
Download these tools:-
AdAware
SpyBot SnD
TrojanHunter Trial
and perform system scans using them.

After those scans download HijackThis and unzip it to dedicated folder (like C:\HijackThisFolder\hijackthis.exe).
Then run it and click the button Do a System scan and save log file. HijackThis will perform a scan and saves the log file as hijackthis.log in the same folder where it is installed and it also opens the file automatically.
Copy the entire contents of the file and post it this Section.

go to www.doxdesk.com/parasite it has a online spyware detection tool. It will give you the steps to remove the spyware once it detects it.

Also visit *www.windowsecurity.com/trojanscan/ to scan for any malicious software.

Your HijackThis version is very old. Get the latest version (1.99.1) and post the log. There are some entries which needs to be removed. We may be find some more in the latest version.

What does the above mean swat? Does it show Lop.com Domain Hacks?


There may be a couple of entries that may be fixed but as swat said, post a new log from a newer version of HijackThis .

try this:
enter about:config in the address bar and in the filter bar, type homepage to ease ur tasks.
here, dbl click on the entry browser.startup.homepage, remove the other site and add this *www.google.com/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official <-- its the oficial firefox startup page.
or just add *www.google.com
also, if the boolean value for browser.update.resetHomepage is true, set it as false.

oh yeah, use javacool spywareblaster, it offers protection for firefox.

Try this, open FF, type about:config in the Address Bar and press ENTER.
Then navigate to these preferences and set these default values:-
Preference Name = browser.startup.homepage
Status = user set
Type = string
Value = about:blank


Preference Name = browser.startup.homepage_override.1
Status = default
Type = boolean
Value = false
