Home Page Hijacked

#1 Post by Onzo » Sat Apr 21, 2007 6:13 pm

My default home page in Internet Explorer is being automatically changed to a Lenovo page at http://www-131.ibm.com/content/home/wel ... nkpad.html. This page was the default page when I received my ThinkPad T60p. I've changed it several times but something always resets it back to the Lenovo page. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I'm running Norton Internet Security and it does not detect or prevent the change.

Thanks,

Go into the properties of Access Connections for that connection profile and uncheck the action that sets the home page to what AC wants. ... JDH

That worked, thanks! That setting was well hidden!
