unable to set home page

[mark]

for some reason I can not set my homepage to google or
any other web site. Once I close and re-open it only
opens in about:blank. This just started today. Anybody
know how to fix this.

Sounds like Spyware. Download both of these free programs:
Spybot - http://www.safer-networking.org
Ad-aware - www.lavasoftusa.com

*Important* After you download the programs check for Updates BEFORE you
scan. Both sites have help sections and forums if you need assistance.
Turn OFF System Restore before you scan. Once your computer is clean you
can turn it back on.

More Tools:
CWShredder - http://209.133.47.200/~merijn/files/CWShredder.exe
Alternate Download site:
CW Shredder - http://aumha.org/downloads/cwshredder.zip

Once your system is clean check for Windows Critical Updates.
Windows Updates - Update Windows regularly (at the very least once a
month) - ALWAYS download Critical Updates. You can set your computer for
automatic updates if you prefer.
