Browser hijack?

Question

My home page is hijacked by a Chinese site "http://www.6700.cn/?g/" No antispy or antivirus worked. I do not know how to use hijackthis. What shall I do? Is formatting the only solution?

Yep, your best bet is to format, instal Fedora 9, then start using Opera as your primary browser. Never, ever need to worry about malware again.

Download latest Firefox. Use a good anti-virus like Norton, Avg etc and a third party firewall.

Answer 3

Boot into safe mode and run Ad-Aware and/or Spybot - Search & Destroy.

If this does not work download HiJackThis and run it.

Answer 5

formatting is not the best answer. It should always be the last resort. People who tell you to format every time you get a virus problem, do so because they are no good at fixing problems. I have NEVER had to re-format to remove malware. try running a spyware and virus scan in safe mode, this can remove things that are locked in normal use. Also go to add/remove programs and uninstall anything you know you do not absolutely need, especailly any internet optimisers, search assistants or toolbars, apart from the Google, Yahoo and MSN toolbars. All others are open doors to malware. You can also look in msconfig and turn off unknown programs, but with care, certain of them are essential, if one stops the machine performing normally, turn it back on.

Answer 6

Malware its called, its a lot harder for antispy and antivirus programs to detect, try download.com for anti-malware programs.

Disable javascript on your browser. .js is a javascript file
