Hi jacky, Just before your message came up I had managed to fix it, back to the original home page now. Many thanks for all your help and everyone else too, thank you. I think it must be old age thats the main problem with me. Betty

Hi Diane, Thanks for the information but I don't know if I should type in www(.)Internet Explorer(.)co(.)uk as I just want Internet Explorer 6 not the new Internet Explorer 7 as it's just the same as MSN. Betty

Hello Betty from Dundee... No problem. With MSN or any other browser just click on Tools at the top and on the drop down you'll see Internet Options. Then in the home page rectangle just type in whatever browser you want, click 'use as default' button and, finally click on OK. Kenn

Hi Betty, I did the same and didn't like it. You will need to uninstall it all to go back to the way you were. I like my Internet Explorer just as it was. Ann

I just download the new MSN live messenger chat and it turned my Internet Explore into MSN website. I want to keep Internet Explorer and just have MSN Chat. Can I do this, I will be offline for a few hours but would appreciate any help. Betty
