I recently noticed that my home page has changed when I load my browser. Could this mean I have spyware on my computer?[br]

The symptoms you are describing sure does sound like spyware. When spyware does get installed on a computer, it has the ability to change the user's home page when they use the Internet Explorer. Everytime they load their browser, they seem to go to a different web page than what they set it for. [br][br]If you do notice your home page changing and you know you did not change it, it would be best for you to download or install an anti-virus program that includes an anti-spyware program as well. This way you can have your system scanned for any threats. And if threats were found, they could be destroyed. [br][br]
