How do I get rid of "protection Bar"

[steamwiz]

Hi

Disconnect from the internet Close ALL browser windows (including this one) - run hijackthis and tick to fix (check the box next to) the list below.........when all are ticked (checked) click the Fix Checked button at the bottom. :-


O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {8aed5df3-6e0b-4930-b1a5-f8aa8d757497} - (no file)

O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel present



Lets split this up...

I am now able to uncheck the protection bar but is it still there?
Also my wallpaper changed and MSN.com is now my homepage. Even if I change it, it keeps coming back.

What is it you can still see ?

2. Also my wallpaper changed

Can you just change it back ? if not, please explain...

3. MSN.com is now my homepage. Even if I change it, it keeps coming back.

I see you have Spy Sweeper installed... when you change your homepage, do you get a pop-up from Spy Sweeper ?

It was in the list when I right clicked in the tool bar. It is now gone.

Changed it, not an issue

3. MSN.com is now my homepage. Even if I change it, it keeps coming back

I change my home page. When I click the home button, norton pops up and tells me the the home page is changing. I scroll down to allow the change but it alway reverts back to MSN. Spy Sweeper does not pop up.

HI

Glad the first 2 are resolved

I change my home page. When I click the home button, norton pops up and tells me the the home page is changing. I scroll down to allow the change but it alway reverts back to MSN

It looks like you have a problem with Norton not allowing you to change your homepage...

There must be a setting somewhere in Norton which is locking your homepage... I have no idea where it is ... sorry

Spysweeper would also alert you to any change, if it was set to do so.
