I recently did a Java update and mozilla disappeared as my home page (igoogle took it's place) and I can't get it back--how do I fix this

Question

When I click mozilla icon on desktop, I am connected to the internet with iGoogle as the home page--no orange button in upper left corner, no customized tool bar, no bookmarks. I have to type in each website that I need to go to and if I want to print, there seems to be no way to get to print

Hi krjc,
You should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[How to set the home page]]. Your homepage might have been changed by a particular site. Sites like MSN, Yahoo, etc have been know to ask to become your homepage.
There are steps in that article to reset your homepage preferences to default. I would try that first to clear out any strangeness. If that works, you can try setting your homepage again to your personal preference.
If that doesn't work you should look at the article [[Preferences are not saved]].
Finally, your issue may be because you've been hit with some [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Is%20my%20Firefox%20problem%20a%20result%20of%20malware?s=malware&r=0&e=sph&as=s#w_how-do-i-get-rid-of-malware Malware].
Hopefully this helps!
