I am trying to determine which websites I visit are
changing my default search page in Internet Explorer 6,
but It seems to be several (at least 3) that are capable
of this feat! I have used my firewall and internet
security programs to block 2 of the sites that were
contributing to this problem. I just want to know how I
can keep them from changing my default search page without
limiting my global options or features of IE6 by using the
Internet Options selection in the tools menu? Anyone got
an easy fix?

First Remove all the parasites on your computer.

Delete all the spywares and bad BHOs from your system.

Make sure these are set.

I. E. MENU: Tools / Internet Options / Security Tab
For your personal security the following should be set at:
1) "Download signed ActiveX scripts" = Prompt
2) "Download unsigned ActiveX scripts = Disable
3) "Initialize and script ActiveX not marked as safe" = Disable
4) "Installation of Desktop items" = Prompt
5) "Launching programs and files in a IFRAME" = Prompt
