I have a question about How 
do I stop Internet Explorer from loading a "home page" when it starts?:

In the referenced post above it refers to IE version 3.0 and early where you can put "-nohome " in the shortcut tab. Using IE 6.0 is there a differnt way to do the same thing? What I am trying to do is open IE from a batch file and I need it to got oa certain page other that the homepage. Thanks,

It's simple, use something like that:

"%ProgramFiles%\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" http://www.annoyances.org/
this will open the annoyances.org main page.
