when I access the internet through microsoft explorer,
the home page defaults to nkvd.us. Previously, it went
directly to google (my preference), but the system now
always revert back to nkvd.us even when I click on the
apply button and leave the browser with google as my home
page. The situation is frustrating.
 
Try the following:
Tools -> Internet Options

Then first set the Home page -> Use Blank .. apply and
press ok then click the home button if it is ok

then type in the Address your preference whatsoever
