Every time I start Internet explorer for the first time after switching on the computer, I find that my home page has been changed to a porn site. Even if I change it back to Yahoo or whatever in internet options, the next time I start the computer it has changed back again. Can anyone tell me how I can get rid of it. Thanks.

possible adaware will work, but if not, you'd have to find the entry(s) in the registry, and delete it, and change the page back to the proper page. depends on what it is.
