Hi,

My browser is hijacked by 'about:blank'. Each time I close and open the browser, it always shows 'about:blank' as my homepage! I tried 'CWShredder' and 'Ad-Aware' but with no success and both programs are updated. I always use these two programs for this kind of problem and they really works fine, but this time I really can't solve this problem!!

i understood the only adware proggy that can destroy it is pest patrol corporate edition.it aint for free though *cough*torrent
 
I've got the exact same problem with a few other issues. I will post a seperate thread. I just wanted to add my.02 worth. I've run adAware,CWShredder, and Spybot, but this particular "nasty" will not go away.
 
Hey, I had the exact same problem and was going mad cos it wouldn't let me use the internet. But anyways I found a solution that worked for me. Here goes:

Run Ad-Aware or another spyware program but don't carry on to delete the files and spyware hold for a minute and look at the spyware names and their locations on your computer.
Then go to - start>run>"regedit" - which opens the Registry Editor, and find these locations in the Registry Editor and then delete these nasties. Careful not to delete anything you shouldn't!

It worked for me, however if anything goes wrong for you, don't blame me please I am only trying to help.

Thanks, Jess
