Re: Disk Cleanup freezing upon starting up and IE Hompage

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry




No, the IE homepage issue is still ongoing. It is set to 'www.msn.com' and
it won't let me change it.

Do I have to go into admin settings?

It is a personal computer with Windows 2000 installed by the guy at the
local computer store who upgraded it from Win 98 SE for me.

Like I said, that article is for Windows XP. I want an article relating to
Windows 2000.

Two questions:

One, in Windows 2000, when I open 'Disk Cleanup,' it starts to
compress
old
files but then stops. Any ideas or articles on this?

Two, the default homepage in IE 6 is set to www.msn.com and it won't
let
me
change it. How do I change admin settings and/or fix this?

Cheers
