Hi,
See "Problem: IE always goes to
http://runonce.msn.com/runonce2.aspx instead
of your homepage" at

Part B...
These and other third-party programs can lock the IE homepage. Examine the
settings of security/privacy/antispyware programs for a lock homepage
option.
Spybot (Advanced Mode) Tools> IE Tweaks
Spybot- Teatimer
Ad-aware Pro
Norton AV 2006 (Web Browsing > Spyware protection)
McAfee AV or Antispyware
Spyware Blaster
Spysweeper
Zone Alarm- free and pro.
If you don't wish to dig through settings of whichever security/privacy
programs you have installed, you could startup in Safe Mode, change the
homepage then restart. But... it's a good idea to check these settings
occasionally.
