About 3 weeks ago, I lost my start bar. I used an AOL search page to try to find how to retrieve it. It came back on its own. And, now I can't get rid of that search page. Every time I sign on, that search page fills my screen, and I'm ready to scream!!--Please, please help.

Thank you very much,

Anyone had this problem?

Does the AOL search page come up when you start the computer or when you start Internet Explorer?

The page comes on as soon as I am on line--I just use AOL as my home page. I also have another problem--I recently bundled my computer with phone and TV and the computer is wireless. Since then, my screen saver flips off regularly and leaves just the home page--this happens regular all the time. It is the same screen saver I have had forever, and I love it. So, this really bothers me.

Thanks again--

Sounds like AOL search is your homepage now.. You can change it.

Internet Explorer 5,6

Internet Explorer 7 (the new one with multiple page tabs)

Also is your computer under guarantee?
Check to see if your plugs to the monitor are plugged in tightly.
If your monitor is plugged into a video card, it may have a problem?
