IF YOU FIND THAT YOUR HOME PAGE KEEPS RETURNING TO THE PREVIOUS ONE – it can be caused by one of your security programs. Most people have Ad-Aware installed nowadays that prevents changes to the registry on your PC. If you have full program that includes Ad-Watch do the following:

 

1) Start Ad-Watch; if necessary right click on the Ad-Watch icon in the system tray and select Ad-Watch settings.

 

2) Ensure all the blocking options you wish to run with are turned on in Ad-Watch and then ensure that automatic is turned off, i.e. is a red cross.

 

3) Make your change to your home page

 

4) Ad-Watch will now pop an alert, accept the change. Ad-Watch will now use this as the default home page setting and not alert any more.

 

5) Change Ad-Watch back to automatic if you wish Ad-Watch to automatically correct any future changes.

 

6) Now start Ad-Aware SE. Click the gear icon, click on defaults, and then click n "read current settings from system".  Check that these are correct and then click on proceed to save the settings. Ad-Aware SE will now use these settings as the replacement values if a browser hijack is found.

 

These need to be set in the above order for things to work as expected.

Other security programs may need to be reset in a similar way.

 

If the problem still persists it could be caused by a virus on your PC, in which case run your Anti-Virus program after ensuring that its reference file is up to date and start again.
