google hacked!

google hacked!




i always set my home page to google and i was surprised today when is saw the words "Google - Hacked by Godzilla" in the title bar. i was like, omg! it can't be, nobody can hack google! so isearched the net for news about google being hacked but alas none (thank god) and i found later as well that no matter what site i go to, that silly hacked by godzilla thingy is attached to the title bar ... it seems that my IE is the one having problems and i have a virus in my pc.
so i searched a way to fix the prob and got this useful tip in removing the annoying hacked by godzilla in the title bar
