Internet Explorer

Google re register ie dlls..

make sure you don't have any tool bars, virusscan tools, etc.

What version of IE are you running?  If you run IE 9, 10, or 11 - you can run in compatibility mode.  For example under IE 11, you can run in IE 9 compatibility mode.

If memory serves, with an OEM build of Windows 7, you should be installing IE8.  Of course, after installing patches / updates, you will get a newer version.

Check these registry settings if they have a dword value of 00000001 change it to 00000000

Click Start, type regedt32.exe in the Start Search box, and then press Enter.
Click OK or Yes to the UAC prompt.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel] - DWORD "HomePage"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Restrictions] - DWORD "NoSetHomePage"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer] - DWORD "NoSetHomePage"=dword:00000001

If not successful Download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, install it and update it and do a full scan. On the last install screen you will get three choices the first being to install the Pro version, Select this mode if you are planning to purchase the product, otherwise untick the box, leave the other boxes ticked.

Edit to add:

Also check under this key as this is where I used to enforce these types of policies.

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel","HomePage"

Also make sure that if you have a shortcut on the Desktop, that shortcut should not have the web link on it in the command.

In HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main what do you show as "Start Page"?  If it is not the website you want, change it to the URL of the website you want in the Data column.
