Something has hijacked my internet start page to About: Blank. I have an XP OS and the most recent iterration of IE but using my internet options to set the page is not working properly as it continues to reset itself to about: blank. I searched my registry and there are three keys that control my start page but i was unable to change two of them for lack of permission. Where do I go to fix this and lock it once I have done so? Thank you for the assistance.
