Maybe, whatever it is I doubt you even need it :lol:

In Add/Remove programs this is listed;

Dell Support 3.2.1

Could this be it?

Does it say something like Internet Explorer by Tiscalli in the window title? If so, Add/Remove Programs and delete all the Tiscalli junk. I had to do do that on my Dell and it sorted the problem...

yes

but it comes directly from factory installed software since google and dell made that deal

sounds like a dell browser hijacker :o

i uninstalled all the dell pish, homepage is fine.

phone Dell....:boggle:

ive been through all the settings in zonealarm and cant find anything that may suggest its locking it. Same with avg

maybe ZA is locking your homepage...

No just AVG for virus protection and Zonealarm for firewall.

Tried the forum but they seem to be suggesting the site you mentioned.

I hate PC's!

no McAfee etc...?

Maybe the hompegae is locked...

format...........

its doing my head in now, ive tried everything listed but its still doing it arrrrggghhhh!!

or just format the pc and do a fresh install :P

i think the link I posted above would be a better bet ;)

try it first because I don't know where in the registry it needs to be edited...you need to run regedit

this might help too:

edit registry to stop:

gtb.exe and gtb2.exe

I cant seem to find it under add/remove programs

When you say registry, do you mean run "msconfig" as ive done this and cant see it here either.

Its internet explorer 7 by the way

got this:

I opened an IE session:
1. Tools
2. Manage Add-Ons
3. Disabled all Google
Close and restart IE.
