Recently I had a situation where a user couldn't re-set her homepage using the normal Internet Explorer (IE) options.
This was a problem as the site that was set to her homepage no longer existed and every time she launched IE she would get 'Page not found'.
In order to resolve this i applied the following registry hack :
1. Winkey + R or Start menu run
2. Type 'regedit'
3. Go to [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]
"Start Page"="http://www.supportingtech.com/"
4. Change the website to the one you require and you are done.
* Please note that the registry is a very important part of the operating system and you should use extreme caution when making changes.
