permisson error and homepage resetting

(1/8) > >>

epaul:
So as of late I have had very strange issues with code blocks.

I am taking a C++ class at a college, but I have been using code blocks months before then I have it installed on my labtop.

However starting 2 days ago I have been getting odd errors.

Here is how it usually goes:

1) I create a simple program to print out "Hello"

2) I go to build the program, everything works ok

3) I go to run the program and...nothing. Just a blank comand prompt screen. Sometimes it will give me a "Process returned 0" statment, but usually its just a black blank screen.

4) I go to rebuild the program CHANGING NOTHING. And it wont build. It gives an error like this:

ld.exe||cannot open output file C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\test.exe Permission denied|
||=== Build finished: 1 errors, 0 warnings ===|

Now here is the REALLY strange thing...at the end of all this...it wipes my homepage and resets it back to blank. And I have to restart my computer in order to reset it back. Sometimes I even have to go into the task manager and manually turn off the program..though not always.

At first I thought I might have a virus so I took it into a comp tech store to have it cleaned.

It came back clean as a whistle.

Tried to run code blocks and got the same exact thing as before. Blank command prompt, cant build due to permisson error, homepage wipe.

So I uninstalled and reinstalled code blocks. Didnt help

I ran code blocks as administrator. Didnt help

I turned off my firewall. Didnt help

So I said "Let me try it on my PC"

I DLed and installed code blocks on my PC.

I got the same exact problems (including my homepage being reset).

The same problems happen on my labtop and PC...and this all started only 2 days ago.

I have worked with and created quite a few programs with code blocks before this with no issues...but all the sudden this permissons error has stoped me cold. What scares me is that I have to have code blocks for my class (afterall it is the program he uses and requires us to use as well), and plus...well...I have been using it for a while and I like it I would really rather not change to a different program..in fact i wouldnt even know where to being looking.

So anyone have any ideas how to get around this. Like I said I tried uninstalling/turning off firewall/running as admin/even switching computers  but nothing has worked.

Where DID YOU get the copy of Code::Blocks?
Where DID YOU get the compiler you are using?

Which source-forge server did you use?
Or if you do NOT know that, what area of the world/country are you in?

Uhh...I clicked the source-forge link (Not the BerilOS, thought I tried that one and it still didnt work) not sure how to check which server it is though.

I am in the US, Illinois
