MSN Homepage--again !!

I posted a query here a couple of months ago, concerning the problems I was getting with MSN imposing their homepage on me without my wish for them to do so. I asked how this could be removed, and the information worked a treat. The problem, is that it continues to occur !!---much against my wishes. Whenever I remove the page--about 3 - 4 days later up it pops again. I have tried the oxymoron known as "customer support" at MSN but to no avail.
Does anybody know please, how I can prevent this unwarranted intrusion and indeed, has anybody else suffered the same ?

Hi there. I take it you are using Internet Explorer? If so, bin it and use something like Opera instead. Opera

Most of the little glitches/bugs like what is happening to you are aimed at IE users.

Try something else for a change see if that works......

Krystal n chips,

Are you using Internet Explorer or MSN Explorer? (One will have the Blue "E" Icon and the other will have the Multicolored Butterfly Icon.)

I want you to download Hijack This! and post the log file here. Do NOT make any repairs. (Hijack This! pulls up everything, including programs that are supposed to be in your computer.)

Take Care,

Richard
