Problem with Hijacked home page.

Unknown
edited October 2004 in Spyware & Virus Removal
My webpage has been hijacked by something called start-page.info. Whenever I enter in a URL, it takes what i type and uses it as a search query, sending me no where but further into the site. I found this site by luck using my Google toolbar, the only way I can navigate the internet with all thats happening on my computer. I ran Ad-Aware as I already had it on my computer, but I wasn't able to run Spybot Search and Destroy because my browser wouldn't allow me to get anywhere. I downloaded Hijack This and this is the log file it gave me:

Also, my internet explorer randomly shuts itself down, saying that it has performed an illegal operation
