Personal Computers Questions

How come when I connect to the Internet my web browser shows me a bogus page instead of my home page?

Q: I am having problems with computer running Windows XP and IE7. Lost themes, now they are back.

Now at boot up I get , Intel Audio Studio Controller no support board detected.

Internet Explorer redirector , can not connect to Internet.

When I do connect to Internet, it starts to go to my home page, but then switches to bogus sites. I can not search for anything.

I have ran Malware. Is this some type of Hijack and if so, how can I solve.

    1. Try running Housecall (on-line anti-virus/spyware scanner) http://housecall.trendmicro.com/

    2. If you aren’t running any up to date anti-virus/anti-spyware software on your computer, install Microsoft Security Essentials (free) and let it scan your computer: http://bit.ly/btJ6Jy
