My home page keeps defaulting to http://youfindall.net/
when ever windows loads personal settings, I am sure it is
as a result of a registry line edit by a rouge webpage I
have viewed or opened by email. If anyone knows the line
to be edited please let me know, I have now turned off
autopreview in outlook to stop HTML pages loading
automatically.
 
Mike;
If you change your Home Page in Internet Options and it changes back,
you possibly have a virus or more likely spyware.
Run an updated virus scan.
Or Scan for Viruses online:

Run Disk Cleanup checking all boxes except "Compress old files"
Check this link:

Run Ad-Aware (free version) or Spybot to check for spyware:
