says "your homepage has been changed" .. keep new value or restore old value.  i 
check the box telling it to keep the new value but still get that message next computer 
startup.   in fact, this morning i got it when clicking on IE after the computer 
was already started and the offending box clicked.  how do i get rid of this message?

If that does not solve the problem, open IE to the web page you want for your home page, click on Tools - <>Internet Options - then select Use Current.Restart your computer.

Only you would know what program that is. That's what you need to look into, Dan.
