Explorer Home Page Locked For some reason my explorer home page is locked meaning I do not have access to changing it. I have since upgraded my norton, run spybot and searched for the problem without success. Any ideas as to what is causing this and how to fix it?

Just post the log back in this topic if you wish. I'm moving this topic to the Security section where it belongs anyway. This is definitely a browser hijack issue.

Maybe you have locked it using one of Spybot S&D's features. It has the ability to lock the home page.
