Search & Destory will do a better job, as it sounds more like a browser hijack

to format...you will need a start-up disk (unless you have windows xp)

the start-up disk will need to av a file on it called....format.com(not a website..a file

)

then restarts you pc
insert start-up disk
it should bring up a list of options...these should be summa tlike...start windows with cd., start windows without cd support, minimal boot...and another one

choose minimal boot and press enter
then wen its loaded it shud say A:/
type format c: /u ..... (with the spaces)
then it shud say wanring all data on non removable drive will be lost...continue? - type Y and press enter....it shud then start formatting
after its finished it will say
enter volume label 11 characters, press enter for none (press enter:wave

bobs ya uncle...start setting up windows again
