Hi Elke. I'm guessing that one of the following two things is true:
- Your father's web browser has been attacked, and it will only ever navigate
to one page. That page isn't on your computer, it's on a server somewhere on
the Internet. This is by far the most likely option. If so, I suggest you do
a malware scan. I tend to use Spybot S+D (from www.safer-networking.org -
beware, there are lots of sites out there that advertise Spybot and give you
versions with more malware built in!) You'll need to download it on another
computer, then transfer it on a CD or a USB key.
- Your Internet service provider runs a proxy server, and it's failed or been
hacked. If this is the case, many people using the same ISP will be seeing the
same problem, and your ISP will by trying to fix it as fast as possible! This
is a much less likely option. If it's true, the problem should go away of its
own accord.
So. Run a malware scan on the machine, and see what you find.
- Peter
