    got major probs with "about blank" virus on IE. AD aware gets rid of the prob temporarily but it resurfaces after reboot. Any ideas on how to find and delete this. I'll need the info in simple terms cos i'm a bit of a spanner in pc terms :o

    Get the following tools.

    Adware.
    Spybot Removal
    HiJack This (probablly will remove it for u)
    CW Shredder.

    make sure u dont have any ie pages open when using those programs. Just type the name of the program into google and u'll find the download, all very small. If you have a variant of cool web search, get cw shredder. but remember to clean all ur temp files, cookies, temp internet files before u use just to make sure.
