All our IE5 now go to an IE505 update page instead of their homepage. "Automatically check for internet explorer updates" is disabled in Ie/Tools/internet options/advanced but IE5 still goes to the MS IE505 update page.

Any way to stop this?
Thanks.

I don't know what IE505 is, but it's usually only set to go there once after install, by inserting this in the registry:
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main
Value "First Home Page": from "http://www.microsoft.com/isapi/redir.dll?prd=ie&ar=runonce&pver=5.0&O1=internal&plcid=1103" to "http://www.microsoft.com/isapi/redir.dll?Prd=ie&Pver=5.0&Ar=ie5update&O1=b1"

Open IE, go to Tools>InternetOptions, set your homepage, then,

Go to Start>Run, type regedit. Navigate to:
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Policies\Microsoft\In ternet Explorer\Control Panel
right-click on the Control Panel key, choose new>DWORD value, name it HomePage and give it a value of 1.

This should LOCK your homepage.
