Internet Home Page

Can't figure out why my home page keeps changing.  I've read some answer's, however, I'm still having trouble understand the directions.

Please help, I'll probably have to go to a repair person but I'm watching my "pennies"

thank you

If you use internet explorer, internet options, General - Home page + verify that your home page is valid . If it keeps changing you may have malware on your system (browser hi jacker). Install  Malwarebytes free version http://www.malwarebytes.org/lp/malware_lp/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=malwarebytes%20... then update it. Boot into Safe mode - (F8 after power on, and run a full scan with your anti virus and Malwarebytes. Please let us know the results

Take note of what JOSEm411 mentioned. Malware loves to pull these tricks and mess with homepages. Also, consider any browser add-ons and toolbars you also have installed. Some legitamite programs can cause your homepage to be locked from changes as well, but more often than not it's "crapware" installed that causes this.
