Trouble Changing Homepage

[Si]

I know how to but it's not doing it if you see what I mean. I go to the page
I want to set as my homepage, bring up the internet options box and select
"Use Current", press apply and then OK but if I bring up the internet
options box again, or click on "Launch Internet Explorer", it's reverted
back to my original homepage. Can anyone enlighten me?

Cheers.

If i was you I would delete any shortcut to IE on yr desktop and only use
the link in the start menu.

Whtat you are doing sounds right but it may be that you have a piece of
adware or spyware on yr machine.

You may have spyware installed on your machine. Download,
update, and run Ad-Aware by Lavasoft, and SpyBot Search
and Destroy. Both are free and available from
www.download.com
If you are on a machine at work or school then it's a
group policy setting that you are not allowed to change.

I already checked for spyware with AdAware and SpySweeper but they didn't
pick up anything. Any other suggestions?

Cheers.

I just figured it out. It was SpySweepers home page shield option that was
stopping me changing it.

Thanks for your help.
