unable to change "Handycafe" homepage
I am using Mozilla firefox version 3.6.9 on win 7 x64 dell desktops... I recently installed Handycafe clients on my machine, and later uninstalled it from safe mode... Now I am unable to change my homepage in mozilla from handycafe haomepage... I tried ad-aware, spybot S&D, tuneup, etc. but nothing is helping...
Please help.

There are several methods to lock down a preference, I do not know what method the Handycafe application would have used. The following link may help, first try the section on user.js file - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Preferences+are+not+saved

It is possible the handycafe client is still installed. See the solution offered on this similar question - http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/728649
