I had www.msn.com set as my home page and now I can't log on to msn.com at all. I can log onto every other website I used to. I tried the automated fixes and the fix as administrator and still nothing. Tried the SmartPCFixer and still nothing.
For awhile I was getting a prompt that said I was missing some required protocols. Tried to fix the Windsoc and winsoc2 and that didn't help.

Any ideas?

Sounds like it's a blessing.  Set your homepage to something else.  



check your hosts file?

Well the Smart PCFixer must of worked. Came home from work and it logged right on. Go figure.
