I bet none of you can figure this out... Thread

This is a Windows question..

How do you get rid of unneeded home webistes?

You know how you go to internet options and you can choose which home web-site you would like (the little list that is given below), well i have magically accumulated like 25 and need to get rid of them so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please, any suggestions, thanks.

ummm well....are you talkng about when you start to type in like www.. and it shows them well thats just showing past sites you have been to and does nothing with your homepage so the only way to fix that is deleteing your web history

you only get more if you have added mroe than one as your home page, or websites have set them to your homepage..

But its no problem... once you have set a homepage it will stay as the one you set..

unless you made a porn page as your main one by accident, and its stored in the list and you really want to remove it

now thats a different story..yah silly bastage

do you guys know how to get rid of them though?

I dont know if you can

More than one homepage? I mean, I've had the magical never-go-away homepages that are some crummy search engine (these are third-party programs that are installed along with software that you downloaded... unless you find the hidden checkbox and uncheck it. So every time you install something, do a 'custom' not 'typical' install! )

no they are web sites, there is this list that has a bunch of web sites i have visited but i never set them as my homepage and you cant get rid of them!!!

Surf around until you get one of those popups for a history eraser Or, reformat your HD. Or, use a good browser. I dunno

when i do erase my history it doesnt make them leave.

Get one of those Internet Eraser ™ things. You'll know it when you see it (erase XXX sites you went to!)

Erase Temporary Internet Files?

ive done that

why the hell are you asking us if we "cant figure it out...."

Use myie2.

They are set to homepage, not faverates?

there's no actual easy way to do it, I think you're looking at a registry frig.

Its under the change your hompage section in internet options, and there is this list that is under it that you can choose from, and its not favorites.

yeah, i dont think that list can be removed, unless pc is formated

Yeah, and I think if you do a google search for the search site that your homepage is set to, you can sometimes get info on how to remove it

Though I did it the manly way... reformat!

ok well instead of just deleating your history...you should try and delete your cookies too. oh and i hope you remebered the passwords to all those porn sites you registered to...j/k

what the...
