apple keeps overriding my homepage

I like to keep the homepage on my MacBook Pro set to my Internet and email provider, Centurylink.net. It seems that every time I start my computer on a new day the homepage has somehow been reset to Apple.com. How do I prevent Apple.com from overriding my preferred home page?

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.3)

That's not normal. Please determine if the same problems occur in "Safe Mode".
