Getting rid of this "Security Center" on my home page???

When I was online yesterday I accidentally downloaded this program called "Spylocked" and it has messed up my homepage. The default still shows as yahoo but when it opens up it goes to this address: http://iesafetylist.com/ and the page says "Internet Security". It also added a toolbar called "Security Toolbar 7.1".



Yes I've already uninstalled that program and I ran a virus check and restarted my computer but it's still the same. PLEASE HELP?????

You have downloaded a browser hijacker. Antivirus may not clear it as it not a virus, it's sole function is to redirect you to a specific site. You should really run an adware or spyware scanner. A good one is Spybot and lavasoft (both free) - download them from here and carry out an update on both then run them, that should clear your problem.

(Lavasoft) http://www.lavasoft.com/ click on the free download button.



Hope this sorts your problem out.



cheers
