[dba-Tech] IE Default Home Page

Bryan,
What looked like a simple solution didn't work.
 
Marty,
Isn't there a way with out messing with the registry to something to fix this?

	Course if you want to do it from code all IE settings are kept in the
	Registry.
	 Look up the following keys:
	
	HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer
	and
	HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer
	
	Here's a script that should change IE's starting page.
	With all the caveats about changing registry and backup and differing OS
	etc.
	This can also be handy for those little gremlins that snaffle your home
	page by overwriting your registry.
	
	Dim Shell as object
	Set Shell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
	HomePage = "Insert A Web Address Here"
	Shell.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\Start
	Page",HomePage
