I went to open IE and got a garish page identified as ATT&T/Yahoo.com.
I tried everything and could not get back to my original blue IE home
page..everytime it said this page is not available..the only thing I
got was a sign in on the Yahoo page..so I tried it and my IE7 homepage
returned..but I have to sign into this real/fake Yahoo page every time
I go to use IE..am using Win XP Pro..Hope someone knows what is going
on, I sure don't..lol..--Phyllis

You might want to run HijackThis so we can see if this is legitimate.

Create a new folder on your desktop named hijackthis

Go to this link and download HiJackThis:
<http://www.merijn.org/files/HiJackThis_v2.exe>

When asked whether to Run or Save, choose Save and save it in the
hijackthis folder on your desktop.

To run, open the folder on the desktop and double-click on
hijackthis.exe. Click the "Do a system scan and save a logfile
button. It should open in Notepad at that point. Copy and paste the
results in your next post. Most of what it finds is harmless, so DO
NOT DO ANYTHING YET.
