I believe that I have a homepage hijack problem? I have Macafee installed and running but I didn't receive any security warnings. This problem only involves firefox and not internet explorer or chrome. I have run virus scans from macafee and spybot and reinstalled firefox several times but still get lock into a homepage called about:blank

I have tried this but it doesn't correct the problem. Even when I make these changes firefox still goes to the black page About:blank and all features of firefox are frozen. I have done a google search on about:blank which is called a homepage hijack virus or some type of spyware?
