Does anyone know?

Is it Spyware? Adaware does not seem to kill it, neither does Spyware Blaster so what can I do about it? Arrrghh!!

Re: What is Amazing Autosearch?

Yeah, whenever I open my Browser (IE) my homepage is Google. For a split second it pinches my browser and directs it to something like 'amazingautosearch.com/blah/blah/google

The it puts the real Google up there.

I don't like it. Also Norton Virus scan doesn't see it.
