sorry to repost but I did not get response so thought that I was in wrong NG
How can I make IE as the default browswer so that my ISP does not load up
their home page first. thanks
 
To change your home page

Your home page is the page that appears every time you open Internet
Explorer. Choose a page that you want to view frequently, or one that you
can customize to get quick access to all the information you want, such as
the msn.com home page.

Go to the page you want to appear when you start Internet Explorer.
On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
Click the General tab.
Under Home page, click Use Current.
Note
To restore your original home page, click Use Default.
 
Hi Wes & thnx for your reply- All the stuff you suggested
to do I already knew how to do but re did it just in case-
HERE is what I am trying to accomplish. Before, I would
connect to the internet by clicking in the login box. As
soon as an internet connection was acheived, IE would
load up with my chosen H-page.I just switched ISP's a
couple of days ago to peoplepc.com. As soon as my
internet connection goes in (& I've allowed Zonealarm to
allow access to their site) I get their box (peoplepc
online)instead of IE. I have to manually click onthe 'e'
in my task bar to load IE and all is fine. How can I geet
IE to load up ONLY and not their site.
Note* in their site, it has an address bar, news,etc just
like any ordinary home page but the home page is called
MY HOME page. If I click "HOME" it goes to their h-page
with their world news and etc. Perhaps I will always have
to click on "E" to start it up unless theirs a way to
avoid this manually. thanks
