Re: Homepage won't change.

Just a couple of things.

1) Run Spybot or Adaware
2) Delete everything both programs find
3) Download spywareblaster Here
4) You will need to download two additional updates to make spywareblaster work properly and these can be found here and here

5) Make sure you keep downloading the updates for the three progs as they need to be able to detect and stop new spyware and mailware from being installed.

Sounds like some sort of group policy is running, which has these functions blocked. What OS are you using?

I used to use Reg Cleaner on an older PC with Win 95, found it very good.

That software is out of date, and unfortunately the developer has sold out, you can get up to date Reg Cleaner but it is no longer freeware.

The link on that site is dated 05.20.02 and the download is version 4.3, dated 2001. If you try to update it or go to the website you are directed to the commercial company who bought out the software, Macecraft.
Where are you getting an up to date, free version from??

Edit: you can get the last "old" version following links on this page.
