I have a couple of problems. One my homepage has been
changed to find4u.net, I have followed microsofts
instructions to get it back, I bought new antivirus
software, loaded both spybot and ad-aware, i even tried
to use the registry to change it, but every time I shut
down and reboot it is back to find4u. In addition i keep
getting these strange additions to my favorite list.
Also when I shut the system down there is a program 'Win
Min' which the system says it is trying to shut down but
unable to do so. So I have to click on end program in
order to shut down. I have not been able to find that
Win Min program. Sorry for the lenght of this but it has
been over a week now and I am getting frustrated. Any
assistance would be appreciated. Thank you.

Bummer. But it's not an IIS security issue, try an IE or more general
security group or web site like http://securityadmin.info/
