The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=69157  redirects to www.msn.com

Asked by configreq in Anti-Spyware, Windows XP Operating System

I can't change the homepage for IE7; it keeps redirecting to www.msn.com  Recently installed IE7 on XP Pro SP2 laptop which was cleaned from 120 plus spywares, malwares, adwares, trojans, and virus'.  Cleaned with numerous tools.  Tools used:  Norton Antivirus removal, Norton Antivirus, AVG Antivirus, AVG Spware Removal, Webroot Spyware Removal, Registry Mechanic, MRUBlaster, and pick and delete through folders and registry.  Owner didn't have original OS disks, or App disks.  Cannot stop the IE page homepage from being www.msn.com.  First in Inet Options I change to www.google.com or anything else, and it redirects to www.msn.com with the following link:  http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=69157  When I try to search for this in the registry the CPU heats up kicks into overdrive, the fan can't keep it cool enough and it shuts off.  I cooled it enough with a ice block and fan...don't laugh.  I got to view the search of the registry but nothing was found with this key.  I still can't view all of looking for www.msn.com in the registry without it shutting off.  This may be just a prank left over from all of the mess that that removed from this box.  Or it may be as destructive as phifishing.  At any rate, do you have any idea how to stop it?  Adware.PurityScan, 2o7.net cookie, atlas dmt cookie, remain after all the cleaning.  The ugliest path that keeps getting checked, but doesn't seem to exist in Windows or DOS mode is C:\Program Files\Common Files\?icrosoft.NET.tracert (part of the My Doom Trojan Horse Downloader.Generic3.CVH.  Generic2.CVH was in User\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\57TONLD\lupdate-4295(1).0000.  There are many more; like I said 120 at least.  I know I should reinstall the OS (but I don't have it), nor do I want to go through all of the User apps.Start Free Trial
