Hello jetsonx,
If you type an address in the address bar, like www.google.com, what do you get? IE may not open the homepage, but will open new web pages.
1. Reset IE settings. Go to Tools > Internet Options > Advanced. Click on "Reset" button. Click OK. Close all browsers. Reboot the computer.
2. Check if a program running in the background is interfering with Internet Explorer. Temporarily disable antivirus, firewall, antispyware, ad-blocker, popup blocker, and all Norton programs.
3. If no joy, IE7 is closely tied to the operating system. If you want to reinstall IE7, you need to reinstall Vista.
Hope this helps!

jetsonx,
What security programs have you installed or are installed while you have cleaned it out?
Some of them have Home Page locks that do not always run or are visible or even warn you when you try to change them, Like Spysweeper has a home page shield, as does Spybot has a setting in it top lock home page, so do as war1 suggests to see if you can simply open a different page after getting that Done.
If you can get to a second page, not just the Home page, then we may be able to help pinpoint the problem.
