I have used Download Accelerator Plus to speed up my internet as my download speeds were way short of the possible. After a short while my Firefox homepage logged into speedbit.com I switched this back to my normal homepage but immediately, whenever I used home the homepage was as above. I HATE this type of thing. I uninstalled with 'Your Unin-staller' and then used 'Regedit' to clear any other traces. I failed, speedbit is back.... It is not effecting Explorer 9 so I will have to use this for awhile. Kevin

I created a new profile following http://mozillazine.org/Creating_a_new_Firefox_profile_on_Windows. No more speedbit!
