| I am referring to internet explorer. I have just bought a
| new computer
| and it has Windows XP Home on it.
|
| When I initially started to use it it had MSN as the home
| page. I
| changed it to have google as my home page. This worked
| satisfacorilly
| for a while untill without me doing anything the home
| page changed to
| the site
|
| res://mshp.dll/index.html#22776
|
| I do not want this site to be my home page so I tried to
| change the
| homepage site by goint through the steps
|
| tools/internet options/ and then typing a new hompepage
| site in the
| section / apply / OK
|
| this does change the home page for the next time I use
| internet explorer
| but on subsequent times it always returns to
|
| res://mshp.dll/index.html#22776
|
| as the home page - and this is the site remembered as Set
| default.
| Thisd is very frustrating and i would much prefer to open
| internet
| explorer to have either MSN or Google as my home page but
| i keep getting
| directed to
|
| res://mshp.dll/index.html#22776
|
| as my default. I have also tried using the Set as
| Homepage link on the
| MSN home page site but i always get redirected to
|
| res://mshp.dll/index.html#22776
|
| on the second and all subsequent connections to internet
| explorer. I
| know this is a littlelong winded but i hope you can give
| me information
| as to how to avoid this link taking place.
|
| Many Thanks
