   IE6 Problem   
   30 Dec 06 18:21:55   
   
   From: oldgrey@zero.net   
      
   In IE6 you are supposed to be able to change the home page that opens.   
   The method is tools, options etc.  When you revised the home page   
   entry and click on apply it is supposed to change and stay changed. On   
   my laptop the change does not stay but reverts to the original entry.   
      
   I have even gone through the registry and manually made the changes   
   with regedit.  This did not work and the original page appears when IE   
   opens.  I then tried going through the registry with regedit and   
   deleted the four lines that were identified as the home page location.   
   When IE was opened again the original home page appeared.   
      
   Does anyone know what I need to do to make the new home page stay?   
      
   TIA
