Publisher's description of StartPage Guard
Malicious programs (viruses, Trojan horses) sometimes change your start page to invade your privacy and collect personal information. In some cases this activity may be totally transparent to the user. SPG effectively deals with all these problems, making surfing the Net safer, more secure, less frustrating--and more fun. StartPage Guard detects and prevents any unauthorized changes to your browser's start and sSearch pages. It also can automatically remove most known invaders.
