UK Searcher -- problem with this site - browser taken over - not a friendly site!!

UK Searcher is automatically updating browser

[claudiasmt]

Can someone explain how to remove an automatic site url display from my browser?

DONT GO HERE This site : UK Searcher DONT GO HERE!! is automatically making my default browser display their site.

Of course they have no contact info at their site.

I actually went there after reading a post here. So to make it clear -- YOU DO NOT WANT TO VISIT UK SEARCHER.

After removing their url from my internet options -- a couple days later some kind of program is run and now this url keeps getting put back into my browser.

Does anyone know how to fix this or what directory I should go to to delete this file? Not sure what they might have named the file...

Thanks for helping!!

I just came across UK Searcher while trying to promote a new site and good old Norton Anti-Virus popped up and alerted me of the fact that this site runs the malicious expolitation code called the JS.Exception.Exploit virus. For more info on what it does and how to remove it's effects see...

That UKSearcher site is bad news. Steer well clear.

I got tagged by this site a while back, same attempt to alter my homepage, not a tactic that will win too many fans.
