Re: Can not change homepage (yahoo)

Done a spyware/adware/ malware scan recently? Could just be a registry edit needed to change the homepage. How are you trying to change it and what happens?

Re: Can not change homepage (yahoo)

That sig is passe now. And anyone who doesn't know what OS/browser they're using, with all due respect, should turn off their PC then buy a book or go on some lessons until they actually have some idea what they're doing, because otherwise they're a danger.
