Odd home page hack?

At some point this morning, when I opened IE, I see my homepage has been changed from google to http://www.findthewebsiteyouneed.com/

I didn't do that (at least not deliberately!)

Is someone being naughty somewhere? Or did someone accidentally click on something they shouldn't have?

You're up late to be worrying about that sort of thing.

I doubt it's hacking, more reflex "say yes to popup" response where coding makes cacky site your homepage.

How are you otherwise?

Three times now, my Google homepage has changed to findthewebsiteyouneed.com. I thought at first that I had done something to cause it, but by the third time I was starting to think it was someone else being naughty.

It's a pain in the arse.

I've changed my homepage to http://www.dogpile.com now, and it doesn't seem to be a problem anymore
