Adding to Jack advice try this:
f you Hit the Icon Home on your browser you will get your home page
back or click on General tab and Retype your Home page Address/URL and click
[Apply] then [OK].
If not then Open a run command and type in:
regedit.exe and click [OK] on the Registry Editor locate the following:
Change the Home page in the following KEYS:
Click on *Main*
[+]HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main.
and look in Right Pane/Window and Locate *Start Page* Right
Click on it and select Modify and enter the Data say for ex;
http://www.microsoft.com as your Home page and then Locate also this *Local
Page* and Right Click on it and select Modify and put the following;
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\blank.htm
The same with this KEY:
[+] HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main
On the *Start Page* change it into
http://www.microsoft.com
Leave the *Local Page* as it is if it have this string of Data:
http://www.microsoft.com/isapi/redir.dll?prd={SUB_PRD}...... etc
Close the Registry and Reboot your computer.
If still no joty try this:
Try the Home Page Lock and Unlock from here- line 63 1st column:

Bear in mind if you have a protection/security software that configured or
by default set to block any changes or alert you to take action, try to
reconfigure it to allow you to change the Home page.
Did you clicked on Apply then [OK] when you tried the URL for your new Home
page?.
Try to make sure your machine is clean from malwares and Viruses.
HTH.
Let us know.
