    IE 9 not keeping 'Home Page'


    Hi,

    I'm having another problem with IE 9. It will not keep my 'Home Page'.

    My Home Page' is www.au.my.yahoo.com. It doesn't matter how many times I type this in the space provided to set my 'Home Page' it reverts back to Yahoo!7. every time I log on,this of course gives me Yahoo 7 but it's not the home page I want.

    Can anyone please help?

    Hi, Thanks for your reply.

    Exactly the same thing. I did try this because that's actually what it should be unfortunately it still reverts to http://au.yahoo.com/?cmp=ie9 Which gives me Yahoo 7 which is, if you know the program, just a plain vanilla 'Home Page' not the one with my selected options/colours.

    This is why I suggested removing the www

    It was the only way that it to work for me (in the U.S. of A.)


    You might try removing all yahoo related cookies and starting fresh - sorry, not a yahoo users...

    Under IE 9 Tools>Delete browsing history clear your temp internet files as well as cookies as UsernameIssues posted.

    I tried it here from the States and it works properly for me as it did for Username. I left off the www.

    Maybe someone will come up with more ideas.

    Hi, Thanks for your response. I tried all that, I actually went into Temp/Internet Files and Cookies and deleted every single one. No change. http://au.my.yahoo.com/ this is how I enter my home page in the space provided.
