Windows 7 MyMSN choices getting lost with Windows 7

[monahanz]

My choice of "Features" displayed with "MyMSN" is getting scrambled from time to time when I restart Windows 7. I have MyMSN as my IE (v8) default page. Very frustating. It comes up with the default Microsoft default suggestion list ( I assume). I have several times had to re-customize the page. Over on my network windows home server for example no such problem, nor did I have a problem on this box with Vista.

Any sugegstions anybody.

It seems like you are facing an issue with the customization of the "Features" displayed with "MyMSN" when you restart Windows 7. This can be frustrating, especially when you have to re-customize the page multiple times. Here are some suggestions to troubleshoot and potentially resolve this issue: 1. Check Browser Settings: - Ensure that your Internet Explorer (v8) settings are not resetting upon restart. Sometimes browser settings can be reverted to default due to system updates or conflicts. 2. Cache and Cookies: - Clear the cache and cookies in Internet Explorer. Sometimes, stored data can cause display issues with certain websites or pages. 3. Compatibility Mode: - Check if the MyMSN website is set to run in compatibility mode unintentionally. Ensure that it is not forcing itself to render in an older version of Internet Explorer. 4. Internet Explorer Settings: - Verify the security settings in Internet Explorer. Make sure that the site is not being blocked or restricted by any settings that might reset upon reboot. 5. Update Internet Explorer: - Consider updating Internet Explorer to a newer version if possible. This might help with compatibility and stability. 6. Alternative Homepage: - As a temporary solution, you might want to set a different homepage in Internet Explorer to see if the issue persists with other websites. 7. Third-Party Software: - Check if any third-party software or extensions are affecting the homepage settings. Disable or uninstall any suspicious add-ons that might be causing conflicts. 8. System Restore: - If the issue persists, you can also consider performing a system restore to a point where the customization of "Features" was working correctly. 9. Feedback and Support: - Consider providing feedback to Microsoft regarding this issue. They might have additional insights or updates that could address the problem. By following these suggestions, you can troubleshoot the issue with "Features" displayed on "MyMSN" when restarting Windows 7. If the problem persists, further investigation or professional assistance may be required.
