Suddenly my home page default is grayed out and uneditable. IE is also
acting a little squirrely. Is this a virus or just that stupid SP 2 I
downloaded in a weak moment?

Cheers
 
Hi,
If you use Spybot S&D, open Spybot in Advanced mode and check the Immunize
settings. You may have placed this (homepage) restriction inadvertently.

If not ... go to Dealing with Unwanted Spyware and Parasites:
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm Scroll down to
"Various Registry Fixes" You'll find a REG file to unlock your homepage.

Next (same page) check for parasites and other malware which may have caused
this, if Spybot didn't. Yes, malware could be causing the other IE symptoms.
Run CWShredder, Ad-aware SE, and Spybot. Also note the security tips on that
page.

Don
