Please uninstall Mozilla, remove any Mozilla and mozilla.org directories from
your program files and common files directories. Install Mozilla 1.6 or newer
and see how that works for you. If you still see the problem, type about:config
in the urlbar and hit enter. Then begin typing browser.startup.homepage in the
filter field of about:config until it drills down to that preference. See what's
set there. You can right-click on the item and change its value right there. See
if that works. If it doesn't then reopen this bug and attach your prefs.js file
to this bug.
