Changing the Home Page of IE

I don't know what happened, but I cannot change the home page of my IE. I previously can do it under the Internet tools.
How do I do that? The option to change the home page is now not highlighted.
and see if "HomePage" as been set to a value of 1 (One)
If this is so change to a 0 (zero) value, then reset your home page.

Hi You need to click run on the start menu, and then type Regedit. This is the registry of windows and is a very inportant file. changing things in there can make windows unbootable. So be carefull to change the correct key. Its best to click on the file menu first and click and then on export to save the registry. You can then run import from the same file menu to restore it if things go wrong. It's unlikely that things will go wrong, if you only change this key item and nothing else.

where you can download two reg files, so you can change these without using the registry yourself. http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/ietips.htm
