Right on my parents PC they have this constant problem with a website called
www.perfectnav.com
basically its some stupid annoying site which has somehow changed a setting and it always defaults to it if you IE doesnt find the website withing a certain time, or its not there or somthing,
recently its been playing up
how can i get rid of it?
Should i just format and start a fresh or what
