no one hacked it you probably were on a **** site or warez site or something which sent you a ton of popups and then one of those popups simply had javascript coding to set your internet browser's homepage as one of their sites to increase the number of ads they show by having you load their popup filled site everytime you open ur browser.
this is not "hacked".
