      This could be my field.

      Check background running programs. Are there any particular programs that shouldn't be there?

      Is your antivirus or spyware remover running some update or autoscan processes?

      Ad-aware (sorry from propaganda) has this annoying setting that it sets the homepa to msn.com, even though you replace it. But this is just when you scan your system.

      Which OS do you use?

        Try installing Ad-aware and scan your system. Also, clean up your temporary folder.

          Maybe one of you guys with some computer sense can shed some light on my problem. My computer keeps changing my homepage to about:blank

          I have tried noadware and the such to search for a cookie that may be responsible, I have run my antivirus software, and now I am not sure which direction to take next to fix the problem.

          Do any of you have any suggestions? [img]graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]

            There has been a thread addressing this very issue.
