Re: Default Homepage Craziness

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Ok:

1: management wanted me to set a default homepage
2: set it using IE Mainetnance\URLS\Default Home Page
3: MGNMT then said to remove that setting so people can configure and keep
what they please
4: i simply deleted that homepage entry and unchecked that option in the ie
maintenance.
5: users with IE keep having their default homepage changed even after they
manually set it. i.e. user opens IE with default of google.com. they manually
change page to msn.com and about 10 minutes later the default page is google.
com instead of msn.com. This is happening across the board sporadically.

i RSOP'd the machines that this is occurring on, including mine, and don't
see an entry for default homepage. none of the gpo's in my domain have the
default homepage option configured.

follow ?

ok, so let me see if i understand what you're saying.

If i enable this setting to "Process even if the Group Policy objects have
not changed" By removing the setting in the IE maintenance for default
homepage, users will process the GPO and notice there isn't a setting for
default homepage ?

Let me sum that issue up - maybe I did misunderstand what's going on.
You rolled out a homepage setting for the users. Mgmt told you to remove
it and so you did. But the clients don't pick up the "undone" homepage
setting and keep having the homepage set, correct so far?

cheers,
