Answer 2

The virus that you have clicked might have penetrated into your system. That's why its not giving permission to change your home page. You can solve this problem by performing a full system virus scan to remove the virus. If you don't have an anti virus, I suggest that you download the AVG anti virus. It's currently the best free anti virus available. Download, install and perform a full system check. AVG can be downloaded through the link below:-

Answer 5

Hello Friends,
As it has happened so first do one thing, inform all the people available in your messanger list about it before they gotten suck. It is quite possible that they will also get such ‘vacation picture’ type messages.

There after do one thing to fix this problem that I did:
Go to http://pack.google.com/intl/en/pack_installer.html?nopers
It’s a google web site so very secured.
You will see a big button named ‘DOWNLOAD GOOGLE PACK’ on the upper left side of the page. Under it you will see ‘ADD OR REMOVE SOFTWARE’ Just click it.

Now you will see several software. Out of them find out ‘Ad-Aware SE Personal. Now mark it with check sign if not and demark all other because it’s the only we need.
Now click on ‘DOWNLOAD GOOGLE PACK’ button given on left side.

Now click ‘ AGREE AND DOWNLOAD’ button.
Now do as the software say.

This software really works. I myself used it.

Now check internet explorer's propertys and set you web page as blank.

Your computer still has virus or not working properly. So Please do these things also and remove it forever. I just tried it today.


NOW,

CLICK on START (left bottom side on your screen).
See if RUN is there or not in this main list.
If run is there, CLICK on RUN and write ‘msconfig’ in it and press ENTER.
Now you will see a ‘SYSTEM CONFIGURATION UTILITY’ WINDOW IN FRONT OF YOU.

Find ‘Startup’ on this window and click on it.
Now you will see a software list with check marks.

Now find two files ‘Svhost’ and ‘Svchost32’ or any other looking same.
Now UNMARK the box given in front of these.

Now click ‘APPLY’ and then ‘OK’.

If RUN is not there:
CLICK on START and the CLICK on SEARCH.

Set the search for ‘files and folders’ on your ‘computer’
Now write ‘msconfig’ for search.
Several files named ‘msconfig’ may come out in this search.
But the file we need is ‘msconfig Application’. It is of about 145-155 kb size.
For more detail, it’s a ‘system configuration utility file’. Check searched files properties if required to identify.
Also, several ‘msconfig applications’ may there, so select any one.

Now, OPEN this ‘msconfig Application’ by double on it.
Now you will see a ‘SYSTEM CONFIGURATION UTILITY’ WINDOW IN FRONT OF YOU.

Find ‘Startup’ on this window and click on it.
Now you will see a software list with check marks.

Now find two files ‘Svhost’ and ‘Svchost32’ or any other looking same.
Now UNMARK the box given in front of these.

Now click ‘APPLY’ and then ‘OK’.

It is the end of the ‘clip24h’ virus on your computer.

Looking forward for your reply and positive votes if you think it works.
