I have set Zulm as my homepage, but lately everytime I open up my internet browser (explorer 6.0) it sets itself to a dogy looking homepage called search club. I have tried to re set my homepage to zulm but it keeps re-setting it back to search club. What is going on???

Can someone help me??

PS I no this isn't a DVD or an Indian film issue but I could use some help from you guys after giving you news and help over the years :)

After doing a search on the net for search club I found a couple of forum pages discussing on how to fix it:

One user suggested on the last forum above:

You have been hijacked! Go to Download.com]http://www.Download.com]Download.com, in the search box, type spybot. This will give you the link to Spybot - Search & Destroy. Download and run the program, but before doing a scan, click the online button, then Search for Updates. Once it finds the updates, download them and install. Only after installing the updates should you scan your system.

Other places to look for information are the best list of startup programs: http://www.pacs-portal.co.uk/startup_pa ... p_full.htm
and the best list of malware and hijackers I have found is at http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/Darnit.htm

Another program that I have used is free software called Ad-aware from lavasoft.com. It is excellent at detecting spyware and removing them.

Ad-aware is good, I use it all the time. Plus another useful program that will help is EMS Free Surfer mk II :wotever: - basically a decent/free popup killer. Problems like yours are usually caused by popup killers. Get it from;
