HELP! family computer hijacked by ssearch.biz
starman59

08/10/04
Installed a new Ethernet card, then this came up.
Running XP with several accounts for family on wife's PC.
When PC is booted, and I log in, a full-size screen pops up, without me doing anything else. Screen showed porn thumbnails, but I killed something using SpybotSD so not this pop-up is just blank. Window still comes up though, just blank. Also, its title bar briefly says "myie-Untitled", for a few secs, then the title bar gets cleared.
When I try running IE Explorer, I get hijacked to ssearch.biz/?wmid=1010. A pop-up says since I have ActiveX controls off for this site things may not display. I click OK, then another pop-up says "You must click YES to activate". I try closing. Then IE hangs and I have to kill it with taskmgr. When ssearch.biz page comes up, it tries to open a page at 314zdec.biz/sextracker.html.

Help, pls! Tx!
