XP Home SP2

Just finished reinatalling everything. When I loaded IE I tried to
set Google as my home page. Unfortunately I typed it as
www.google,com. In case you can't see it, thats a comma in front of
the com.

I've "fixed" the problem by going to Google and selecting "Current
Page" as well as retyping it and selecting Apply before hitting OK.

Neither fix works---when I hit the Home icon it brings up the version
with the comma.

Anyone got an idea for a permanent fix?

Check the security programs installed on your computer. Some
antivirus/antispyware programs have a feature that locks down the home page
setting.

Good luck
