sittercity.com ???

talk about a browser hijack
that sucks....
i'd run some malware software and look for it
open your control panel and click on internet so that's already open
then minus it to your taskbar
then right click your S-B icon and run it as administrator
once there... @ s-b see if your re-directed
and if so pop the internet settings back up off your taskbar
and see if it says sittercity.com in there
then high- light it and delete it...

put what ever your homepage is supposed to be in that box and hit apply then save

thanks Raven

ya it is a browser hijack I guess
it just happened when I clicked the back button when I was on WEEI.com

so I'll try what you said if I can figure that out
I am a computer dummy

Bruce - go download MalwareAntibytes here: http://www.malwarebytes.org/downloads/

Install, update, and do a full scan - if you have any questions you can call me - thanks!

I updated it and am running a full scan now

OK, I ran that and it went for 2 hours, found some stuff, I had it remove them as suggested. restarted computer.

I just went online was looking some stuff up and when I finished that went to click on this site and instead of S-B it took me to sittercity.com again. those freaking weasels

maybe I missed something. I'll get Melissa to run it again when she comes home tonight from work.

This was happening with Firefox, so now I will use Chrome from now on and see if it happens again
