I found that page about two months ago. It refers to registry keys that do not exist and a registry editing tool which does not perform as described in the text.

It's useless.

Ok, while this program SUCKS, I came up with a non techie solution. I had run Adaware....of course to no avail, and Norton....no help there either.....
Then.... I saw the *.dll file that was screwy, which Adaware found but could not delete. I went into my computer for a manual delete, but it wouldnt let me delete it. It did however let me rename it. So I renamed the .dll file and now it cant be found to be accessed. Browser is no longer being hijacked!!!!

Your browser isn't being hijacked, but you can bet you sitll have the stuff on your system sending out info ...

If a file won't delete, all you have to do is go to safe mode to delete it...

And also make sure if you have xp to turn off system restore, clean everything, make sure it's clean, then turn system restore back on and create new restore point. Then guard yourself like Alec§taar said, and even try those new browsers, they're safer. You might only need IE for special cases.

Dude I fought with that bewitched sp.html & sp.htm about blank hijacking problem for months. Hijack this and adaware would get rid of it only temporarily.

I ran this tool and it is completely gone. It has been well over a week and no problems.

Hope you have success. I know this also worked for one other guy. Yet another guy ran it and it did not work for him.

I would delete all your temp files and run spyware tools first.

leave a post here if it works.

with the amount of hits this thread gets it makes u wonder how far these nasties have got! Oh dear

OMG somebody please help me. Im soo frustrated and I am about to start crying. I have the about :blank spyware and its just messing up Internet Explorer. Ive looked and tried to follow the instructions, but they are too difficult or I cant find it. Ive done the security response, Spybot Search and Destroy, and Ive tried to manually delete it, but I just cant do it.
