Bloody Thing!!

Hi All....can anyone help? I have been getting a screen appearing when I boot up IE which tells me all about a virus and has a page of advertising associated with it. I am up to date with my virus scans and I believe this might be some kind of "browser hijack". I have looked at the home page set in my preferences and it remains the same(ie the one I set it to).I have tried ad aware and spybot with no success.

The address of the page is www .safetyhomepage.net
DON'T CLICK ON IT!! and I cannot shift it. It seems to be an advert to sell me something I don't feel I need......any help?(xp home edition service pack 2 running on Internet Explorer....latest version )

Thanks Folks
