Why can't I change my hompage in Options ?

It is blanked out and the buttons are there but aren't usable. They are greyed out. I have a spam homepage that I can't change

Must be a fix ?

Cheers

Go to Start>Run>Regedit. Search for the homepage name and delete it. DO NOT delete anything you are not sure about... that is a big DO NOT

do I search using the find option in View ?

Mr.Cookie

yes

Soulgirl

Choose Start>Run>Regedit... got to top of page and single click My Computer. then Click Edit from the top menu and Find. Type in the main part of the url you are looking for. If you do not find it.. go back to your home page and righ click, choose properties and copy what the url is in that window.

Yes it looks like that one

And the buttons where you can alter your homepage are unusable for some reason
