Since I installed the MsgPlus! sponsor program, my Firefox homepage keeps changing (I let it do anything it wanted to IE, cause it's not important to me anymore ). Is there a way to lock the homepage like in IE?

No, sorry, the sponsor program changes the search page to default every time you open/close internet explorer, there is no way to stop this changing...

I don't see why the firefox default page is changing .

Something else is changing your Firefox page. In order to lock your homepage, you'd have to set a particular file to read-only, but this would prevent you changing any Firefox preferences.

hmm well you could try editing the pref in user.js , http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/edit go there to find out how to make it then insert this into your user.js

code:

---

/*sets the throbber url */
user_pref("browser.throbber.url","http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/");

/*sets homepage url */
user_pref("browser.startup.homepage","http://start.mozilla.org/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official");

With SpyBOT you can lock it aswell (or was it only Internet Explorer? :\)
