How to disable MSN.COM as the default site 1

Is there a way?

In IE, Tools, Internet Options, the first box lets you change the default Home page.

Tools > Internet options > General tab > insert the desired start page in the Home Page "Address" box > Apply

It's too late at that point.

Every user, every machine, before the first time.

Is there not a registry hack somewhere. I can't find it in the GPO.

You can "push" a registry change:

Likely spending some time on the "Default" user profile will help as you add new users:

Gosh. From all the details in the question, I'm surprised we didn't get that the first go round.

In the Internet Explorer Maintenance Section of User Configuration-Windows Settings, there is a URL's item. Open that and you can set the default home page.

Something tells me that I installed that IE Maintenance part as an add-on to the GPMC, but I can't remember for sure. If you don't see it on yours, you should be able to find the download for the add-on on Microsoft's site somewhere.

Hope that helps!

That was it. Thanks vanvb!

(Couldn't find it earlier. To much to peruse through)

No problem. Thanks for the star!
