Steve,
You seem to have picked up a Trojan. This, as the name suggests, looks innocent until it gets into your computer, then hijacks it. Resetting your homepage is typical of these pests. A couple of questions:-
1. Do you use an antivirus program, and if so, which one?
2. Do you have a firewall installed, and if so, which one.
Get back to me with the answers, then I will know how to advise you.
Don T.
