Internet explorer

[Ryan]

I need help!!! When ever I try to change my home page it
will not let me. It keeps going back to a website that I
did not tell it to. I scanned my computer for a virus but
nothing is there. I updated i.e. and put in all the
patches. What else can I try?

Hi Ryan,

For Pro: Go to Start/Run and type in: gpedit.msc
User Configuration/Windows Settings/Internet Explorer Mantainence/URLs. In
the right pane double click Important URL's.

Either uncheck all three boxes or fill them in correctly (Home Page, Search,
Support). Leaving them unchecked still gives you the option of setting the
HomePage manually via IE.

Run this edit to unlock your HomePage settings:
