Homepage Hi-jack

[ped101]

Has anyone else come across this before i downloaded a copy of winrar from cnet which i incidently did not even need installed then was attack by some sort of spyware/malware which hi-jacked my homepage i have now got rid of it but was a pain in the arse for a good while!!

It turned my homepage into a fake microsoft screen trying to sell me some shady spyware fix!!

Think the virus was called valhalhehehe or something:withstupid:

Maybe you should think about changing antivirus software if it didn't pick it up when the files were saved to your PC.
