I'd not worry too much about what's in the box already. Load the page you want as your home page, open the Tools menu and choose Internet Options, Tab to the "Use current" button and press it. That will change your home page to the address you're on. If you want a blank page when you start Internet Explorer, there is a Use Blank button which does what it says. If you have Internet Explorer 7, where you can have multiple home pages, you just need to open all the pages you want, make sure focus is on the specific one you want to have focus when you start Internet Explorer again, and then go to Tools, Internet Options, Use Current. I think you're restricted to about six or seven home pages, but that's enough for most people! Steve
