Default Re: home page

Hi
I had to disable "block possible hijack attempts" in Ad-Watch's monitor to
change my home page. Is it possible to let Ad-Watch recognise my new home
page and turn on "block possible hijack attempts" I did try that after the
change but it reverted back to MSN.
Also Plato said to look in settings area in AVG7 to get the program to start
with windows, but all I could find was...Service/ program settings F8/ and
two tabs "program" and "keyboard"...But nothing there to allow program to
start up with Windows??
