My home page has changed

[craft1948]

I have always had the BBC website as my home page on IE...............it has suddenly changed and displayed MSN..........I have changed it back but how/why did this happen?

[craft1948]

right zacs...........although shouldn't my Norton detect anything like that and block it...................

whenever you install any software from microsoft it tends to try and change your home page to MSN, there is normally a little tick box hidden somewhere in the install process that you can untick to stop it being changed, so if you've recently installed anything from microsoft that is probably the reason for the change.

thanks chuck I haven't installed anything new but my daughter has recently started to use the MSN mail which has always been on my PC but I've never used it.....would this trigger it?

[craft1948]

oh bu88er...........she won't be using it again then

That`s probably what did it, my page changed after my grandaughter used msn.

Open IE and then click on TOOLS and then click INTERNET OPTIONS, then GENERAL and then there you can as www.BBC.com in Address box on Home Page.
