    R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page =
    R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page =

    Thanks

    From this Bleeping Computing tutorial:
    R0 is for Internet Explorers starting page and search assistant.

    There is no need to 'fix' those lines, if that's also an inquiry.

    OK then am I correct in assuming that the reason there is nothing after the = is because I have my home page set to about:blank ?

    I beleive if it is specifically set to about:blank it should show, but don't quote me on that. If, on the other hand, there is nothing entered, then it would show as you have it listed.

    Either way, things are fine with both displays.
