home page

[mike]

I can not reset my home page. It will only go to
find4u.net. In tools internet options the home page is set
to msn.com. What can i do to fix this???

Have you tried scanning for spyware or viruses??

I know I had dot com toolbar, which is a spyware I picked
up some how and when I did a scan and removed it, I could
then sort out my home page...as it was defaulting to the
dot com toolbar homepage, when my address was set to
blank!!!

Try it, hope it works
