Internet Explorer

[Rich]

Does anyone know of a way to lock my homepage on IE? I've
gone to internet options and I keep changing my homepage
but some sites change it their's without my consent. This
really pisses me off and I'd like to hear from anyone who
knows a trick or two to keep this from happening. I have
run various spyware programs and I'm pretty good about
cleaning out my cookie cache.
If anyone can help me out, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks

First eliminate any scumware.

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each need to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs.

If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem please post back
in the same thread.
