Hi everyone, when my brother starts windows vista internet explorer starts up automatically and two browser windows start up, both are his google home page.
i have done a full system scan with Mcafee and also scanned with xoftspy for spyware with no result. i have created a hijack this log, can anyone see anything obvious? or suggest a remedy to this.
He also had problems where windows update would not update and Mcafee would not up but i have since fixed this by resetting windows update and re installing Mcafee. by the way i installed mozilla firefox for him and made it the default browser and on restart two instances of firefox started up so i guess something is starting up any browser which is classed as default.
any help much appreciated
