Jim, Can't get spy sweeper just yet because of money issues. Maybe when our tax refund comes back.

I'm pretty sure it will resolve the problem if indeed it is spyware of some kind. If that didn't work then it must be setting on your PC of some kind. Can't imagine what that would be though. By the way, Spy Sweeper is excellent at blocking all that junk from getting on your machine if you engage all the shields. I would advise when you install programs though that you shut Spy Sweeper down as it will warn you of anything trying to be placed in start up etc. Thanks, Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: real-eyes-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:real-eyes-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Suzanne R Sent: Sunday, April 02, 2006 4:13 PM To: real-eyes@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [real-eyes] Re: altaVista My home page still says Google. If I alt home enough I eventually can get it there. Although, sighted friend said AltaVista is always on the screen, either behind or beside, even though Jaws doesn't always read it.

You either got it from some web site you visited or from some software package you installed containing malware. I do believe that Spy Sweeper will get rid of it. Believe me, it is well worth the price of $29.95 for two years of protection as Spy Sweeper will help to keep this kind of crap from getting back on your machine. Thanks and good luck, Jim -------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: real-eyes-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:real-eyes-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Suzanne R Sent: Thursday, March 30, 2006 10:53 AM To: real-eyes@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [real-eyes] Re: altaVista That's what it is! a browser hijacker!
