Question
I am using explorer with NT and have had my browser taken over by searchportal.com. I have tried using spybot, ad-aware, spyblaster and evidence eliminater to remove it but it returns every time I start explorer. Can you please help me get rid of this monster.
Here's a link that might help you out with this:

Also, you might want to update Spybot and Ad-Aware. Some of my search results indicated that they should remove this for you.
Cheers,
Chris
