Dell/Google Home Page: Acting Strangely In Dell XPS-420

The Dell/Google customizable Home Page page that appears on top of Internet
Explorer (the
fun page that lets you "add stuff" from Google's library of neat
mini-programs) now only works to a limited extent. Most of the dozen or so
items I previously added from the Google library work OK, though a few no
longer work properly. But I no longer can add "new stuff" from Google, and
the existing "stuff" I added to the page no longer can be deleted! I should
mention that my wife and I have separate user accounts, and her Google page
(with different "added stuff") still works fine, so something has
malfunctioned within my user account, and not hers. Has anyone noticed this
type of problem and/or found a solution?

If you go to www.google.com , you can customize google to your hearts
content.
At the top left, click more...then more again.
Tons of options.
Also you can customize igoogle.

I wouldn't know how to repair the Dell/Google home page issue...I've always
done a clean install of the OS to remove all the Dell related BS they fill
your PC with.
