Title: Have wrong computer homepage--
Post by: agnes on December 14, 2008, 11:38:07 AM

I have Microsoft Windows and very satisfied with it. Also new to using computers. Why would Yahoo all at once become my homepage? I don't like it! Would very much like to return to my original homepage that came with my Compaq computer. Thanks for any info.

Sorry, not familiar with all computer jargon--maybe I should have said my computer website homepage. All it shows is Yahoo Search & I'm not even registered with Yahoo for anything. Sorry for being so computer stupid.

Hi Broni--My browser is Internet Explorer. I tinkered around with my computer & deleted a few things (tabs,etc) and believe it or not my computer returned to it's original web page. Now I know where to go if any other problems arise. So happy I came across this site!
