My home page is igoogle...and I've loved it. BUT, Google is dropping igoogle November 1st and I'll have to figure out something else. It is somewhat suggested that igoogle home page users switch to Google Chrome page and set it up as a home page... and Google doesn't really even seem very excited about THAT. Hmm.. right now, the idea of setting something up with Google Chrome impresses me about as much as kissing my own sister. I'm thinking mostly about switching to Yahoo.... but there are a few others available.. You might want to check this out... http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/6-great-alternatives-igoogle.htm Good luck!!

Try a FAQ page at Google or Mozilla. That's pretty brand specific. I have a feeling you won't be able to anyway. Unless you saw somewhere that it can be done. Do you mean like a Google toolbar on Firefox?

Create the menu tab on your homepage right click in the top toolbar you should see a number of toolbar options select the menu tab which will add File Edit View Favorites Tools and Help
Click on the tools at the bottom of the drop down list will be internet options or
Click start control panel internet options you will see a home page box To Create Page Tabs type
each adress on its own line (type in google.com) or your preferred home page and browser
below that will be change search defaults click on settings you will see all search Providers
Toolbar extensions and Accelerators you have have if dont need any of them you can disable or remove them

Open Control Panel, Internet Options, General tap, set your home page, apply. open the Programs tab, click on Manage Add ons, In Toolbars and Extentions, Disable/remove ALL toolbars, open Search Providers, Disable/Delete ALL except Google, set Google as DEFAULT,in the bottom left check both boxes. I think you have some Malware on your machine. I suggest you download Freeware MALWAREBYTES at : http://www.filehippo.com/download_malwarebytes_anti_malware/ In the install UNCHECK the TRIAL PRO version, you want the freeware version. Run a FULL SCAN, DELETE ALL RESULTS, Reboot. Run a FULL Scan with your UP-TO-DATE Anti Virus, Delete ALL results. Let us know the results.

First of all, your question is not complete. What really are you asking about? Changing the Homepage to iGoogle? And for some reasons you are not able to change the Homepage in Mozilla Firefox. If this is so, firstly, you should go to 'Options -> Options' by clicking over the FIREFOX tab. Now under the 'General' tab, go to 'Home Page'. Beside it, in the blank field type 'www.igoogle.com/' and click on OK.
Now check the homepage by clicking over the Home icon on any opened tab.
If you have already done the above and the homepage has not changed, then some program is preventing you to change the homepage. You must uninstall that program before trying the above process again.
You have identified the MY WEB SEARCH as a possible reason and actually it may have caused the problem. But so far I know, it changes the default search engine (in Mozilla, it is Google Search) to it's own type. And there are lots of toolbars (e.g. ask toolbar) , search engines (e.g. babylon search) available, which changes the default homepages and search engines when they are installed. And you should uninstall these search engines or such like unnecessary programs to check whether it solves your problem or not.

These programs usually come as a by-product when you install a software, and if you install the original product in the default mode, these by-products get installed on your computer without you knowing. So, it is always safe to install the softwares in custom mode.


And one thing again, you have used Deviantart Windows 7 Style For Vista to change the look of vista to windows 7. These type of programs usually changes the core system files, so when you will uninstall the software it will leave some elements of its own and your OS look can be a mix of Vista and Seven. And even more, some programs may not work properly. So my advice is to avoid these softwares for your own safety.


Hope this helps,

go to google.com on the search engine, on the search page it should show a gmail sign up & to the left of the page it should show make google your homepage, just follow the prompts

you can even put a icon on your desktop of google,,when your on your google home page--right click the google name & go to create shortcut, & it should put a shortcut to igoogle on your desktop,,that's what I did

to check to see if igoogle is your home page do the following steps
Go to the start menu
Then to control panel
Network & internet connections
Go to OR PICK A CONTROL PANEL ICON
Click on internet options
The menu should show--internet properties
In the general tab at the top should be home page
Check to see if google is there for home page
If it's not type it in--igoogle & click apply & ok

The only few things I can think of are:

1. Cookies - which you say you cleared
2. Delete browsing History
3. Check to ensure you date and time are correct (windows clock, lower right of screen)
