Let's try something else...

Fix this entry with HJT if it still exists:

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://securityresponse.symantec.com...r/fix_homepage

Then, Go to Start>Control Panel>Internet Options>Programs tab. Click on the Reset Web Settings button.

Click Yes at the next prompt. Make sure the Also reset my Home Page box is ticked.

Then, post a new HJT log.

One more question....is your version of ZoneAlarm current with updates? A recent update has corrected a bug where some users could not reset their home page.

http://download.zonelabs.com/bin/fre...seHistory.html

Should be ZoneAlarm version 6.5.737.000

New and improved features in ZoneAlarm version 6.5.737.000

* Fixes a crash that was discovered in some cases on international versions.
* Fixes an issue where some ZoneAlarm users couldn’t change their default home page.

To find out what version you have installed, click on Overview Tab, then Product info.

Let me know how you get along.
