For about the last 2 weeks I have an ip address keep becoming my home page. Going through the standard stuff doen't change anything. I have even went to the registry editor and deleted it but it still comes back when the machine is rebooted. It slowing everything down.
The site is search-space.com and when you click on one of those links it goes to cool search.com.

A mi también se me ha metido. Esto es lo que he hecho para quitarlo (Esto es para Windows 98, probar si funciona en otro, supongo que si...):

1.- Cierra todas las ventanas del Internet Explorer

2.- Borra el archivo C:\\WINDOWS\\NavExt.dll

3.- Borra el archivo C:\\WINDOWS\\qttasks.exe. ¡¡¡¡ OJO !!!! es qttaskS.exe (con S al final)

4.- Introduce en las siguientes claves del registry la nueva página de inicio, por ejemplo http://google.es/

- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer\\Main\\HOMEOldSP
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer\\Main\\Start Page
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Software\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer\\Main\\Start Page

5.- Borra las siguientes claves del registry:

- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run\\winlogon
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run\\qttasks

6.- Yata. A tomar x culo http:/search-space.com/

Monty, sounds like your computer may have picked up a variant of the CoolWebSearch hijacker. Go to http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/cwschronicles.html#cwshredder and run the "CWShredder" file which may correct your problem. It worked for me.

Try using Hijack and then delete the files labeled HKCU\..search-space <- this isn't the file exactly, but the files should contain HKCU\ and search-space.
