firman Posted July 24, 2007 Author Posted July 24, 2007 No... This is my computer. At work we have a login script that runs and sets our homepage to a certain site. I want to be able to have a lil auto IT script run that chnages the site back to www.microsoft.com for example.
mymicha Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Hi, on the Internet Explorer you have to change the following RegKey: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main There you will find the REG_SZ Value "Start Page". Type here your URL in. On the Firefox Browser it's not so easy. You have to go into the Application Data folder of the current users profile. %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox. There is the problem. At first run of Mozilla, it generates a random foldername. You have to extract the name out of the file "profiles.ini". Now you can go deeper and you will find a file "prefs.js". Edit this file and add a line like this: user_pref("browser.startup.homepage", "http://www.google.com"); I hope I could help you. Micha.
lod3n Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Does your company logon script change your FIREFOX homepage too, or is it only affecting IE? [font="Fixedsys"][list][*]All of my AutoIt Example Scripts[*]http://saneasylum.com[/list][/font]
