Something else to check

 

I had the same problem, so here's something else for you to check:

 

In Chrome, go to Settings, then, under the "On startup" heading, click on the "Set pages" link. I had my startup page set to "http://www.google.com" BUT, at some point, my Homepage was changed to be "https://www.google.com" (note the "s"). I had noticed this change some time ago (I don't know where the change came from, or why) and changed the Settings in the Homepage Protection to be the "https" address.

 

Soooo, every time I closed Chrome, it tried to change my Homepage address back to the "http" (without the "s"), and Homepage Protection prevented it from doing so, and popped up a notice about it.

 

The answer is to make sure all your settings (Chrome AND Homepage Protection) are set to the same page.

I just checked and both are set to the same page, and like what you said it does it when i close chrome. I have the http without the s.

I turned home page protection off, got fed up with these false warning all the time.

 

I use free ver of superantispyware to protect my home page it does a good job.

So i allowed it and nothing changed on my homepage.
