Using XP and have the latest updates. However after the last update I can
only get MSN as the homepage, no matter what I do. Have tried all the usual
places to "use current page" but nothing sticks. Any help out there????

This has nothing to do with Windows Update.
One or more options/settings in an ever-growing number of third-party
applications may be disallowing the changed home page from "sticking". These
include but are not limited to Ad-aware's Ad-Watch, Spybot Tea Timer,
SpywareBlaster, SpySweeper, Spyware Doctor, Norton AntiVirus, McAfee
VirusScan and/or Antispyware, and Zone Alarm (Free, Pro, & Security Suite).
