4.0.1 doesn't retain my Homepage if I exit Firefox. Always goes to a different search engine page I've never used before. How Do I get it to save this info as it did in the older version?
Since downloading 4.0.1 anytime I exit the program (Firefox on my desk tower) it reverts back to different search engine homepage

If you get redirected to unrequested websites then do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.
