I cant change my homepage url!!
 

I just bought a Fujitsu labtop 2 weeks ago; was gonna buy an IBM but got put off by its design... anyway.. Ive been unable to change my homepage from http://www.pc-ap.fujitsu.com/ to anything else. It keeps coming back after I clicked OK or apply. kinda need some help with that.

Thx in advance!! :thumbsup:

I have had virii that have prevented me from changing my home page, but never a manufacturer.

There must be something in the registry that overrides your preference. There are a couple of people on here that can help you with that.. All I can do is bump. :)

no prob dude, but thx for the reply.

What OS and which version of IE (assuming it's IE)?

If you are using IE, you might want to reconsider your choice (or not choice) of browser. I suggest Mozilla Firefox or Opera. IE is not a very quality browser, since it has multiple security vulnerabilities and is especially succeptible to adware and spyware attacks. If you MUST use IE, then keep antivirus software updated regularly, have a firewall (Zone Alarm of Kerio Personal Firewall), and run Adaware and Spybot S&D regularly. You are most likely infected with something that the manufacturer put there in the first place. Why they would do this, I don't know.

If you have any additional questions, you can e-mail me a heinouskyle@gmail.com. I would be happy to help.

ie v6.0.2800.1126.xpsp2

Okay, go to the registry editor and head to the following locations:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main

HKEY_ LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main

HKEY_USERS\Default\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main

and check the Default_Page_URL and Start Page info. Change the website url that's there to about:blank or whatever site you want. If you need help with using the Registry editor, drop a post in here and we can walk you through it.
