Hi All
I'm having the same red devil crop up everytime I run Spybot detector. It shows as Microsoft Windows. RedirectedHosts. Spybot fixes it, but the next time it comes right back. It now has begun to change my home page on me. Does anyone have a solution to rid me of this creepy thing? I ran a program called fixware, but that led to the home page change and I am not well versed on doing this type of operation.
