Sometimes I go to log on a site,type it in etc. and the screen goes completely white and in the address bar it says about blank, or something like that. I have Spyware Doctor's latest version too, McAfee Antivirus etc. Something about being hijacked, this shouldn't be, I take all the necessary precautions...what up with this?

Download the free version of Superantispyware. I use this software and will always find what all other miss or unable to delete. While installing, software will ask you for your correct home page so that it can be secured. Make sure you type in your correct home page. (Example: http://www.yahoo.com).
Then run an indepth scan and the problem should be resolved. Plus always reboot.

I'd suggest that you run an antivirus program to scan for anything that could be causing this to be displayed.
Another thing that you may want to try would be to run another spyware scanner and see if that helps you.
Good luck and I hope I helped!

"About:blank" is the generic name for different variants (CWS.Hiddendll, se.dll, CWS.Homesearch) which hijack the browser, cause pop-ups and reduce computer speed - try CWShredder - free here
