Argh..more spyware

[Canyarion]

I have/had the same problem with the start page (and the 404 page) and nothing could remove it (adaware, spybot, spywarenuker or something, mcafee). I found a program and instructions on www.geek.com that can help me, but I'm too lazy to do it, because it's pretty complicated.

Try searching for the site that keeps coming back as the start page.

Ah..all of my problems are fixed due to an antivirus program that Classic Rocker showed me. It's called AVG, and it's easy to set up. Just go to google and type AVG and you should find it. It's worth it.

Edit: Actually, I do have one more problem. Whenever I go to places like my xanga or the forum that I made for my school, with Internet Explorer, the font size is HUGE. For my xanga, it should be around 8 or 10, but it looks like it's 14 or 16 and it's really annoying. I am assuming it happened because of the spyware and viruses that I just cleaned out, because it only happened yesterday, and today, but I don't understand why it's still there if I have cleaned up my system. Does anyone know how to fix this? If nobody has an answer, it's fine since I'll be using Mozilla anyway.

if you have a mouse wheel: hold ctrl and scroll up (or down, I forgot). It should change the font size. If not, you can change it in the internet options.

We're using AVG on the family PC, but my problem goes deeper than normal spyware and virusses, it seems.

I knew there was a way to do that, but I just couldn't remember it. Also, I tried the internet options and there was no thing about font size..just the fonts. Anyway, I'll go try that right now. Thanks.

So um I just tried that with firebird. I kept doing it and the font didn't stop growing! IT WAS AMAZING!

It might stop eventually but I did it forever.

IE stops after like 5 scrolls.
