Home Page

[Guest]

I recently had a hard disk crash on my desktop computer. I replaced the drive
and then had to reload the origional software for it. It is a Sony Vaio. When
the Internet Explorer was loaded it assigned as the homep page a Sony Vaio
Home Page. I went into Tools and Options to change it to my MSN home page. I
hit APPLY and then try to go to and from the home page. It always reverts
back to the Sony Vaio home page.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Many anti-spyware programs will "protect" your Homepage from alteration.
You will have to look at each one's options.

or

Close IE.
Open Regedit.
Find the value NoBrowserOptions and remove every instance of it.
It is most likely (but not necessarily) to be here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Restrictions
