Question ID: 257780
Why can't I type in a domain name and hit CTRL+ENTER and have it
automatically fill in the www and the .com???  Every time I do this,
it pops a screen up sponsered by www.esearchandfind.org or
www.internet-optimizer.com saying that they can't find the site I am
looking for.  It tells me this for sites like Yahoo! etc.  I need to
get this fixed... Someone please help!

Internet Optimizer is a browser hijacker. More info here:

Here's a good page about hijacking, with links to programs that can
fix the problem:

Please let me know if this helps!

THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH Pinkfreud!!  You are a life saver.  The
information you provided did the job.  It took a while to get it all
out of there and figure out what was even there.  But I have cleaned
the system and have hijacked my system back!

Wouldn't have been able to do it with you!  Thank you again!
