Within the Local computer policy snap-in, user configuration, windows settings, internet explorer maintenance, URLs, you can specify the default URL. You can also just go over to each PC, open up IE, go Tools, Internet Options, type in the address of your page in the 'address:' field, and click OK. Hope this helps.
