Try a base install and go from there. Sounds like your profile is messed up.

its like that once i've extract it
even before i do anything to it
or the download is corrupt. I'd say try downloading again and try it on another PC.

tried redownloading from different sever but still like that
what should be the initial homepage when it was made?
So, something is up with your PC.

any suggestions what could it be?
Perhaps spyware mucking with your hosts file?

but i already have both avast and microsoft sntispyware running tho'
Best way to make sure is to look at it manually. Youll find it at
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc
just open the hosts file in notepad, and see if anything is being redirected.

I did what you asked in the previous posts and they don't work either. I do have the data file here - data\portablefirefox\profile. What specific file can I edit in here to set my homepage?
