Virus: http://default-homepage-network.com/start.cgi?hkcu PLEASE HELP!

[TBoneJWJ]

Everyime I open Internet Explorer my homepage is changed to http://default-homepage-network.com/start.cgi?hkcu . I've gotten rid of one of these before with the help of HiJackThis but this time I can't seem to get it that way. Here is my HiJackThis log:

try running a spyware detector and then change the home page in settings

[DanGrease]

Its probably spyware and not a virus(es).
Download Ad-Aware and Spybot from download.com, they are free and work great.

Also run the group policy editor. gpedit.msc

You can easily switch that back by simply changing your default homepage to whatever site you wish...

(In Internet Explorer, simply go to tools -> internet options -> change home page -> OK)
And then simply restart all open browsers or restart your computer (this will guarantee a delayed popup
will not reset your setting.) You can escape any hidden console by selecting it and then click alt-F4.
Default-homepage-network.com does not "lock" your homepage setting.

Default-homepage-network.com never downloads any spyware, adware, trojans or viruses to your computer.
The ONLY change default-homepage-network.com ever makes to any setting on your computer is the
default homepage in accordance with our terms of service.
