I've got a problem, namely a startpage (the page ya get when ya join the internet, dunno whats it called) and a toolbar on top.

It's really annoying and tried everything but i can't get rid of them.
So I was hoping someone here could help me get it off my computer.

Thnx in advance

DarthMaul, try Spybot- search and destroy. I've found it to be the best. It is very comprehensive and updated regularly (and free - the guy recovers his expenses off voluntary donations). Perhaps the spyware that is causing your problems wasn't recognized by the other program.

I'm running Mozilla 1.5 RC, Firebird, and Thunderbird. I like the RC, but Firebird and Thunderbird are better cuz they are faster, and easier to use :)

I had something like that once...

I installed ad-aware 6 (freeware from http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/ )

Run a deep scan in your registry or your whole hard drive.
It should target any spyware and give you the ability to remove them and their crap.

Hope it helps :D
