After spending approximately 3 consecutive hours trying to cleanse my computer of malicious malware (browser hijack), I finally just decided to get rid of Internet Explorer altogether. I’ve deleted it from my desktop and now rely completely upon Mozilla Firefox.
Since the switch, I’ve encountered none of the myriad of problems I once experienced. No random redirections, no homepage resets, no additions to my Favorites folder and no more blocking of pages dedicated to rectifying the problem. And, it may well be my imagination but, I have the feeling that Firefox renders colors a bit better than I.E. Perhaps the scales have literally fallen from my eyes?
