Can't reset my Home URL

Can't reset my Home URL
Mon, 1 May 2006 14:48:36 +0000
I am running IE 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519.  However I am unable 
to change my home address as I continue to get the following message:

http://www.microsoft.com/isapi/redir.dll?prd=ie&clcid=0x0409&pver=6.0&am
p;ar=home

and I am continually reset to MSN.  I have tried a few fixes that I have 
found, but I need to find someone who has more information.  Thank you.

If you could copy and paste the complete error message, we might be able to help
you more.  Clicking on the link you sent sends me to the main MSN page.  What
happens if you choose a blank homepage, then click Apply/OK?

Are you running as a limited user or do you have administrative privileges?

Your browser could be hijacked Highly unlikely due to your homepage being that
page but who knows if you cant get it fixed try running Adaware SE and/or
Spybot.

1. If your on a corporate network, your System Policies might be set to do
this.

2. If not, then your user rights might not be set to allow you to make changes
to the

IE tools internet options.  

Can we assume that your on a userid that has admin priv's?

Someone could have reset the attributes to the IE options to read only..

Also, it is assumed that you changed the options to blank or some other site
and

checked the apply button on the bottom of the screen?

Very important point, Rich. With the assumption here that most of us have admin
priv., I'm sure I'm not the only one who read your post and said, "Duh, why
didn't I think of that?"
