I can't change the Home Page on Internet Explorer. When I go to Internet
Options, General the Address and Icon Buttons for Home Page are in shadow.
All of the other functions under General work fine.

I've tried clicking on the make this my hompage at various web sites but it
won't change anything.

I normally use Netscape 7.1 for my browser but I would like to be able to
set a home page for MSN IE too.

Thanks,

Bob

Have you installed Spybot S&D or something similar recently.
These programs have a function that locks the home page change from
within IE. Try changing from internet options in control panel.
