A trojan or such is changing my IE settings everytime my pc is booted, is there a way to change it so they cannot? Somehow the settings got on my allowed list, and I can't see any way to put them on my blocked list!

Thanks.

You can't move it from your Allowed List to your Blocked List right from Teatimer,but you can remove the change from your Allowed List.
Right-click Teatimer,then select Settings,to open the Black & White list.There's four headings at the top you can click on,Allowed processes,Blocked processes,Allowed registry changes,Blocked registry changes,and if there's anything you wish to remove,just click the X to remove it,then click OK.

To get it blocked,after you remove the Allowed Decision,you'd have to click Deny and Remember This Decision,after you get the pop-up about it from Teatimer once again.But I think a better idea,if you have a trojan ,would be for you to ask for help in malware removal.

I took them off and restarted, but they are on there again and they changed my settings back without asking me.

After removing the item, are you clicking "OK" or exiting the window?

Umm, I'm busted. I didn't even think of that lol. I did remove it, but it was still changing it. I think I got rid of what I had using Avast, but I'm still blocking IE with my firewall for a while.

Thanks!
