Ads and Spyware etc.
 
Okay, for some stupid reason my internet explorer is being gay. Although I use firefox, sometimes I have to use IE at school because it works better.

Whenever I start IE, it always goes to www.ieuptodate.com as the homepage. I've tried changing the homepage but it somehow always becomes the shitty website. Not only that, when I try to browse it pops up with an anti-virus removal thing, as well as an adult site tracker removal thing... which I don't need as I don't go searching that kind of thing (rare thing for a GFFer to not do)/

Obviously it is something in my computer that I can't seem to find and get rid of. I've got an antivirus program (Kaspersky) and a firewall (Sygate) but I don't know if any of them have a spyware/adware removal thingy...

Any suggestions?

Neither of those programs you mentioned have any dedicated spyware protection, so that explains how you got these bugs in the first place. To fix this, download, install, and update both Spyware Doctor and Trend-Micro Anti-Spyware. Boot your computer into safe mode (press F8 after restarting it until the boot menu appears) and go to town. Once that's done, run CCleaner to clean up the remains of the spyware and any temporary internet crap leftover. That should get rid of your problems without much hassle.
