    I have downloaded several spyware and adware tools. My home page that is always set on msn.com has recently changed to a home search assistant page. It also changed the default page. I know this is some kind of spyware. But if I have already downloaded several programs to get rid of that kind of thing, what can I do? Help please!

    If you truly have the HSA hijack, there is no single quick fix program that always works. About:Buster and HSremove are the closest to doing that but they may require multiple runs with in normal boot mode as well as in safe mode along with a couple other steps indicated on their download pages. But in most of the new cases I have been seeing with these HSA hijacks my Generic Solution (which now makes use of About:Buster and HSremove) seems to be needed.

    Check out the links above (underlined words) and these too:
