Homepage

I am not sure if this is the right forum to post in, but here goes anyway...

About 2 months ago I had to do a system restore on my Dell Latitude 100L. Everything went fine except now internet explorer will not let me set my homepage. No matter what I change it to, it always goes back to dell.com. Any suggestions?

Two things can lock your homepage -

1.Spyware

2.Anti-spyware

In your case I suspect it`s an anti-spyware.

Here are some programs that can do this -

Ad-aware's Ad-Watch
McAfee VirusScan and/or Antispyware
Norton AV
Spyware Blaster
Spybot- Teatimer
Spysweeper
Windows Defender

Go into the options of whichever your using and change the relevant setting.More HERE

Also,use Firefox instead of IE for general browsing.
