A similar problem; I set my browser home deafult to
Yahoo, but my default home page resets each time I
reboot, is for a web site call Home Search, with a
Microsoft Windows logo??; the address in the address
field is :
res://pcxdz.dll/index.html#96676
Make any sense to you? Please help me get rid of this
nuisance and default setting override.

That

you

Next

you
