How to Change the Preset MSN Homepage in IE8
After upgrading to Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 (IE8), you may find that the homepage---the first website loaded when the browser is launched---has been changed, and that you do not know how to change it to your preferred website. IE8 allows you to use any website as your homepage, and will retain the configuration until you change it. Remove the preset MSN homepage and set your IE8 homepage to the website that you use most often.
