    Does anyone know why i keep getting the following entry in Hijackthis even after i fix it:

    R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page =

    Should i be fixing it. Where does it come from?

    Those are legit in some cases, if you have 2 or 3 they are legit entries.

    When I do cleanings I usually remove them just in case. If they come back they are legit. If there is nothing following the = they are legit and sometimes are if there is something after the =.
