Why wont computer save homepage change?
I have a client whos computer randomly changed her homepage to:
"http://flyingincognitosleep.com/cgi-bin/h.pl%22
This forwards her to google. Well i have tried changing it, going into regestry and changing it. Changing it under a different account. and all give the same result:
Change is saved until IE is restarted.
Changing in safe mode proved the most advantageous. The change saved completely until i rebooted and logged her back on. We have ran virus scans and all.
What could be the problem and how do I fix?

I understand there is a way to remotely shutdown your computer from your phone through a text message via email via mircrosoft outlook. I was wondering if there was a way to do this without using outlook. I dont have a droid so I dont have the option of RDP.
2 AnswersOther - Computers1 decade agoDoes light have matter? Im putting this because I need 20 characters.?
First, matter is defined as anything that has light and takes up space.
So we know that light is made up of photons, which have mass, and they take up space so they are matter. Because of this we could assume that light is matter.
Well something I have always been taught is that the main te st for seeing if something is matter is by answering the question: Can you fill a baloon with the object and make the baloon expand? Well if I put a light, and a power source inside of that baloon, I cannot expand the baloon. So according to that, light is not matter becase it does not take up space.
Some may argue well the baloon is to big, well even at that you should still be able to expand the baloon such as you can with H, C, O, H2O, all of that. With enough of the substance, you should be able to expand any size baloon. You cannot do this with light.
So with that I will ask agian: Is light matter, why or why not?

1 AnswerPhysics1 decade agoDoes Light have mass?
The question that has stumped many scientist. With these things answer that question.
If light did not have mass, then it must not have energy, which is against all laws saying "The sun is the main source of energy" plus this:
E = MC^2 E=Energy, M=Mass C=Combustion^2 then the following:
E = (0)(0)^2 with M=0 and C=0 which would mean E=0, this is not true
but on the other hand, anything with mass is affected by gravity, Light is not effected by gravity, because it has no weight.
