My pc seems to have acquired this nasty trojan which is playing havoc with myIE7. Keep getting pop ups selling anti virus and other anti-malware. Also have lost my IE homepage, keep getting cannot display page.
Can anyone suggest a quick and easy way to get rid of this virus without reformatting the hard drive?
Many Thanx
