Odd Home Page Reset Message in Internet Explorer

- perhaps that's a few too many.. depending on what they are. These can conflict with upgrades.

I recall- a long time back- when home page hijacking was more commonplace- there were programs you could configure to 'protect' your home page.

Sometimes, it used to be the case that installing certain programs meant your home page would be changed by that program.

You don't list the security programs, so I can only suggest you look at them to see which provides that protection.

I wouldn't expect any current general report on such an issue.
