and tell hijackthis to fix selected. I've read that McaAfee should be able to remove the problem so I'm confused as to how it's coming back. I would sugest running Adaware, Spybot and spyware blaster to check your system is totally clean.
Also look through your control panel, add/ remove programs list for anything strange or anything with the word "search" in it.

Ellie, does McAdee say where the start page trojan is? It may be that you have to run the scans in safe mode after turning System restore off and then back on again. It could be that the trojan is locked in a system restore point and is being put back as Windows is being fooled into believing you need it.
Its says C/WINDOWS/system32/aytfq.dll was infected by START PAGE-DU.dll

Dont know if that's what you mean Paul?
