Hijacked homepage with ProxyWay (no other symptoms)

Hello, I was wondering if anyone here could give me some help

I recently installed ProxyWay (freeware IP masker downloaded from proxyway.com) onto my machine. I have Ad-aware, AVG anti-virus and Norton all active on this machine - please see my Hijack This log for more detail about my system.

I've noticed that when ProxyWay is Active, my browser's address bar is redirected to "page/login.jsp" (which displays a simple login page and a logo) no matter what domain I'm trying to load.

Example: my homepage is google.co.uk - I get redirected to google.co.uk/page/login.jsp
Example 2: I try to load yahoo.co.uk - I get redirected to yahoo.co.uk/page/login.jsp

This happens in both IE and FireFox. Please see my attached screenshot.

What's more, when my homepage is set to blank, I get redirected to http://www.collaborativedrug.com/page/login.jsp by default.

Everything functions normally, however, when ProxyWay is Inactive.

There are no other symptoms on my PC of infection/malware. Having run the AVG scanner, and my Norton virus scan - they come up with nothing suspect.

Google has proven itself to have no useful information on this, either with forum postings or any articles addressing this issue. There is nothing mentioning this behaivour on the ProxyWay.com help files.

Of course, for now I've just left the software Inactive on my system since it's useless with this happening.

But I'd be interested to find out what the HECK is happening, as I'm sure you'll understand

Any ideas on this odd behaivour?
