Earlier today my dad asked me how to change the homepage.  He gave me the site, and so I went to "Tools", Internet options, and changed the adress.  However, when you click "ok", the site remains the Yahoo website!  Then I went to the site given to me, clicked on the home tab and selected "add or change home page".  I clicked "make this website my only home page" and tried the button.  Still Yahoo popped up.

How on earth can I get rid of Yahoo, and make them leave my home page alone?!

I've got lots of Karma left for any help.

Thanks.

There was, but I uninstalled it, along with the Program Files folder.  It still hasn't gone, though.

Try deleting all of your temp. internet files.... tools>delete cookies....tools>delete files.... It should help a lot. I'm guessing there is still some sort of cookie or something that is messing with it.

the IE 7 box, with the "home page heading", followed by a box with the Yahoo address in it.  If you change it, it always changes back to the first one.
