I recently upgraded from Vista to Ultimate 7. IN the transition now the Firefox default home page points to a plug in web site. The plug in is for TestGen get pointing here: http://support.pearsoncmg.com/testgen/tgPluginTest.htm

I can hit the home button and it goes to the proper home screen. I have turned the plug in off and yet the startup page is still going there. I check the setup and the default is still my preferred one. I even removed Firefox and reinstalled and it does the same thing. I looked through the profile and it shows the one I want is in there. How do I make the default change?

I also have a second profie for my wife. Her default screen is also going to the test gen test site. Please help!

I found the issue. I didn't realize I made an icon on the launch tool bar that was pointing to the testgen site! Of course it would open this site. I removed the icon and replaced it with one that was not reprogrammed to go to an alternative site. Yeah, I feel stupid!
