my homepage got accidentaly change and i can't change it
back because when i press internet options, a dialog box
pops up saying only the administrator can change it. i
can't tell the administrator to change it because he went
away and it will be a long time before he comes back. so
in summary, i need to change my home page without accesing
the internet options or other properties
