help with browser hijacker

i cannot get rid of some spyware or something of the sort changing my default homepade to "coolsearchengine" or something like that... and whenever i try to go to msn.com i go to a page called "royalsearch.com" but the address on my browser still says msn.com. even when i sign out of hotmail i am sent to that royal search page. I have run ad-aware, and downloaded "browser hijack blaster". i was wondering if there is anything else i can do? thanks

 

"browser hijack blaster" only changes my default homepage back to what i want it to be, it doesnt solve the problem of how it is happening or why msn.com is some search website. at the bottom of the page that comes up at msn.com it has a link to how to get rid of it. here is what the page says:

Last time we recieve many letters like:
"Can you please explain to me why your website keeps coming up on my computer, even though i change the settings, so it wont keep poping up. I do not want your website up on my computer, please respond, to let me know how to get rid of your site...."
....We I go to my computer, then internet options and try to load the home page I want to use, I can do that. The next time turn I re-boot my computer, it defaults back to your search engine. I have found a link in my internet temp. files to your search engine and deleted that and reset my home page via control panel, internet options etc. and reset my home page. We I turn my computer off and re-boot again, I'm back to your search engine. What else do I need to do to fix this? Where is the embedded link?...

to remove this, try to use this freeware soft - HijackThis or search in registry for suspicious .exe, .js, .hta, .vbs here:
Start->Run->regedit
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
or (and)
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run


EDIT* : ok i will try that program, thanks.

 

phew... thank you, that worked out well. this was stressing me out, i could not get rid of it. everything is A-ok now though.
