includes/ templates/ your_template/ common/ tpl_main_page.php

if  (in_array($current_page_base,explode(",",'list_pages_to_skip_all_right_sideboxes_on_here,separated_by_commas,and_no_spaces'))  ) {
     $flag_disable_right = true;
  } 

Replace this with this:

if  (in_array($current_page_base,explode(",",'list_pages_to_skip_all_right_sideboxes_on_here,separated_by_commas,and_no_spaces'))  ) {
     $flag_disable_right = true;
  }
if  ($this_is_home_page) {
     $flag_disable_right = true;
  }
