While I have been on ATS....no other windows open....I have suddenly lost my home page when I tried to bring it up. I have tried for several hours
intermittently to get my home page.
When I use click a link in a post, I can bring down my address line and get to my home page from there, so I know it's not a matter of the home page
being off line.
This has not happened to me before.
Have I picked up a bug here?
Hope I am able to get back soon.
Don't know what is going to happen now.

scan ur computer for virus if u think thats the cause or probably some kind of connection/internet related problem

Thanks for your reply. It does not indicate a connection problem. I will do scan now.

Sounds like your computer is infected with spyware. They can hijack your startpage or even change it to the spyware maker's choice. Antivirus does
not always help.

Please use REPORT MALWARE/VIRUS COMPLAINT FORM if you think that you have
picked something up from ATS. Give as much detail as possible.
Thank you.
