    IE Homepage stuck on.....[RESOLVED]

    ...http://home.whazit.com/

    I tried changing it, and even deleting the key from the registry. But when i load IE this crap http://home.whazit.com/ always loads up as my Start page. And when IE errors i get a error page loading from http://home.whazit.com/

    I tried Spybot to check for spyware, but none came up, does anybody know how to remove this crap?

    Look in Control Panel for "Whazit" and uninstall it.

    There was nothing in the control panel for this.

    However link two helped me get rid of the crap. It was called something like "EFMNCYU.DLL" in Windows\System

    Its gone now, thanks for the help and links

    P.S

    Ive un-registerd the DLL mentioned above, is it safe to delete now?

    Thanks!

    Yes, delete it.

    Or give it to someone you don't like.
