525363 2007-02-17 03:42:00 If u have xtra, chances are your default homepage is set at xtramsn.co.nz? Is this the exact address ur homepage is set at? If not,list it here. Because from march 1st xtra is changing to yahoo,so what will happen on the 1st march,when xtra customers open IE and it goes to xtramsn.co.nz? Will it redirect to yahoo?There is also a preview of the xtrayahoo site here:

www.geekzone.co.nz

I do not like it. and i wonder if yahoomail will takeover from xtramail on the front page?

So a guess it may or may not switch over to the yahoo site, depends what MS/telecom/xtra have set up.

"To change your home page

Your home page is the page that appears every time you open Internet Explorer. Choose a page that you want to view frequently, or one that you can customize to get quick access to all the information you want, such as the msn.com home page.

Go to the page you want to appear when you start Internet Explorer.
On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
Click the General tab.
Under Home page, click Use Current.
Note

To restore your original home page, click Use Default."

Can't imagine wanting my ISPs chosen page........

You can customise this to suit yourself.

Can be a very good portal to other sites.
