Recently IE7 was updated and since that time, whenever I open IE the first page that opens is www.microsoft.com

My home page is set to Google and no matter what I set as the home page, as soon as I close and then reopen IE, I come back to www.microsoft.com
Irritating.
Any ideas please.

Cheers

Have you tried opening the home page of your choice then Tools, Internet Options and click use current?

An update to this post.
It was SPYBOT that caused my problems.
After Googling and searching the MS Knowledge sites I found several references to antispyware causing problems
I then uninstalled IE7, turned off SPYBOT, reloaded IE7

All is now sweet
