I purchase a disk of software title "Banned CD", after
installing it I've had numerous problems. The main one is
I cannot select my homepage when opening Internet
Explorer. No matter what homepage I setup it always
returns to the "i-lookup.com" home page. I've tried
Homepage guard, but it only works one time, then returns
to i-lookup.com home page. How can I get rid of this home
page completely?

Specific registry settings affected are:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control
Panel] - DWORD "HomePage"=dword:00000001 (grays out the whole section)

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explo
rer] - DWORD "NoSetHomePage"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Restrictions] - DWORD "NoSetHomePage"=dword:00000001

Hope this helps...... :)
