My homepage has been hijacked by google. I can reset it to what I want, but when I close and reopen the browser, it is reset to google. How can I fix this?

Hi jpitkin,

You should take a look at the Knowledge Base article How to set the home page. Your homepage might have been changed by a particular site. Sites like MSN, Yahoo, etc have been know to ask to become your homepage.

There are steps in that article to reset your homepage preferences to default. I would try that first to clear out any strangeness. If that works, you can try setting your homepage again to your personal preference.

If that doesn't work you should look at the article How to fix preferences that won't save.

Hopefully this helps!

Thanks Matt_G. I had to go to the "Preferences not saved" option, but it worked.
