Will not change page

I let someone use my computer whilst I was away and now when I log on IE will not move from a page that, allegedly, my friend was last viewing!! It is not a **** page; in fact it is a help page for my ISP and it's not my usual start-up page. When I type in a new url, it looks like it's going to go to the page but then just returns to the same page. I've set all the security setting to the lowest.

If I use the dial-up connection to a different ISP everything is OK, so it seems related to this ISP. I've tried deleting the dial-up connection and setting up a new one, to no avail. On my other computer that my friend didn't get his hands on, everything works OK.

Any ideas much appreciated.

 

Get the page you want on the screen.

then at the top click tools-internet options and "use current ".

Tried that, without success.

 

rogerew Hi

Do the basics --tools internet options [delete files] and mark the box to delete offline content, clear history on the security tab please use the default button than apply, ensure the green and blue gloab is highlighted first. on the advanced tab use the default button again.
