Internet Exploer Options

by sillum . Updated 24 years ago

Hi,

A site has made it’s URL the Start Page as well as the URL in the search bar, search page, custom search and searchassistant on the browser page (all these value data in the registry also as below.

H KEY CURRENT USER_Internet Explorer – Search url
-Main – search bar, search page, start page
-Search – customize search, searchassistant

And all these value datas also under H KEY LOCAL MACHINE

I have tried to re-load both IE5.0 and IE6.0 after going into the registry and searching and changing all value data with the url I want and backing up the changed registry (run – scanreg)…but every time I reboot, the url I do not want is ‘back’ in the registry and of course in the Internet Options home or Start Page as well as the areas mentioned above. I cannot see anything unusual in the startup folder. I have run virus scans which are negative and I have cleared the history, temporary internet files and the Temp folder.

Any ideas!

Thanks
