Connie, What do you mean by "on my side of the computer"? What web browser are you using (e.g., Internet Explorer 6.0, Mozilla FireFox 1.5, etc.)?

Guest PA Bear Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Re: default home page cannot be changed You cannot change the home page or you can but it doesn't "stick" when you open a new IE window or reboot? -- IE-specific newsgroup: http://news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-Windows (IE, OE, Security, Shell/User) Connie wrote: > Our hard drive was just replaced; i cannot change my default home page on > my > side of the computer. the other side has no issues with this. > > any suggestions?

Guest PA Bear Posted July 8, 2007 Posted July 8, 2007 Re: default home page cannot be changed What's right? Pick one: A. I cannot select a new IE home page. B. I can select a new IE home page but when I reboot, the home page has been reset back to what it had been. -- ~PA Bear Connie wrote: > that's right. if i open a new one, i get 'e-machines' > if i go someone and go 'home' i get 'e-machines!' > > "PA Bear" wrote: > >> You cannot change the home page or you can but it doesn't "stick" when >> you >> open a new IE window or reboot? >> -- >> IE-specific newsgroup: >> http://news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general >> >> ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) >> MS MVP-Windows (IE, OE, Security, Shell/User) >> >> Connie wrote: >>> Our hard drive was just replaced; i cannot change my default home page >>> on >>> my >>> side of the computer. the other side has no issues with this. >>> >>> any suggestions?
