More Information
May be it caused by one of your extensions or plug-ins. Try to manually disable them all and close (exit) all other internet related apps and try again to change your homepage. Does this work?
Also it maybe caused by a threat or badware application. Try making a full scan whith an updated Internet security program (i.e. Kaspersky internet security, Norton Internet security & ...) and try to change your homepage after restarting your system.
Have your problem solved???
