Everytime i click on the IE icon my home page appears but
i don't go online.I have to go to file and clear the tick
which says "Work Offline".I then have to click on the
icon again and then am connected.How do i set IE to
connect first time.

Cheers in advance.

Go to Tools, (Internet) Options, Connections, and
click "always dial my default connection". That should
sort it.
 
Perhaps this might help.
