View Full Version : qwertysearch browser hijack


andy smart
One of my users has had his home pc browser hijacked to a home page he
says is called 'qwerty search'. I can't find anything about this one on
the web, apart from a suggestion its a cwb varient. No mention of it on
the cwshredder site though. What worries me is that he says it keeps
asking him to enter his password every time he wants to visit a site.

Defense in depth being one of my mottoes, any information would be very
welcome.
