Dear All, i have a serious problem. Everytime i open IE, Firefox or chrome. my homepage is http://www.hao123.com/?tn=97473572_hao_pg instead of google.com.

Can anyone help me out? before that happen, i got installed xigua and also QVOD, but after i removed the programs, the homepage (hao123.com) still there.

Seriously need someone to help me out.

did you try to change the default website when open browser?
if nothing works, try reinstalling the browser

Try go setting chg homepage address or reset to default setting

I have tried the mentioned method, no use.

1. uninstall apps that maybe listed with that kinda name or any apps that u know u never install it but they listed.
2. set all browser to default state.
3. run malwarebytes.
4. run ccleaner.
5. restart

go to Control Panel -> Programs and Features

take a close look at the list of installed applications. Remove the irrelevant apps.

Probably you are using "express installation" option most of the time, and accidentally installed malware at the same time

its not difficult to change hao123. i did for a few pc already.
go registry editor, replace all value to ur desire home page.

that will become ultimate blocker for the rest of ur windows life.

xigua is what program?

is a video player same sort like qvod player.

installing cn programs always means installing other programs in behind

must be very careful when doing setup, don't juz click next next.

for QQ, i only pick international version, not cn version.

go to google chrome settings page, click on advance option, click to reset browser to default settings.
Voila. done.

only affected caches, cookies and pinned page. do not affect remembered passwords, themes or history

If editing registry and changing the default page doesn't work, check the program shortcut that you are using. Sometimes they add the address in the shortcut itself.

hello.. it happen to me and this is what I did:

1) Uninstall qvod player
2) After uninstall, there still some program running to hijack the browser. You need to stop in the task manager something call qvod webservices.
3) After stop the backgroup process, remove the file in "C:\Program Files (x86)\QvodPlayer" and "C:\ProgramData\QvodPlayer". Note: ProgramData is hidden file, enable view hidden file to view it. Btw, I'm using windows 8.1. Directory might be different depending OS. Please also take note if you not able to remove the files inside the folder, please rename it to something else and then delete it.
4) Reset you browser. Eg: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-...x-most-problems.
5) Check if your browser still redirect to hao123 with the above steps. So far my browser back to normal after done above steps.
6) If still not working. Try your luck and follow this steps "http://malwaretips.com/blogs/remove-hao123-virus/"

try use "360 Antivirus" it clear those malware and set back ur start page.

try use hijackthis...
usually it work!

Usually came with chinaware like QVOD, PPS, 360 and many more.

Check Task Scheduler for hidden startup program.

Thanks very much for the help guys! Finally I have successfully remove it. Many thanks! ^^
