why is it when I want to browse the internet, does it come up AOL Explorer instead of my yahoo home page?

You must have installed some AOL software, and it changed your home page. It's easy to change it back to any page you want. If you indicate what browser you are using, someone can provide instructions.

The Yahoo! toolbar is only compatible with Internet Explorer & Mozilla Firefox. It's not supported with the AOL browser.\n\nLaunch Internet Explorer when you're connected to AOL, and see if it appears there.\n\nIf you want to use the Yahoo! toolbar, you'll have to use Internet Explorer to browse the web, after you connect to AOL.

Make sure that Yahoo browser is not your default web browser. There must be some settings in the yahoo browser options. \nI dont have a yahoo browser, hence i dont know. \nThen open IE and in Tools>Options select the option of making IE your default browser . check this link http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=284456

The address bar is the long white box at the top of the Internet Explorer window. On this page it will have an address in it that starts http://answers.yahoo.com....\n\nJust erase what's in there now, type the address/URL that you want to go to, and hit the Enter key on the keyboard.

You checked the box to make FireFox your default browser but did you uncheck the box in IE? I have IE7 beta - but I believe location is stillthe same, Tools | Internet Options | Programs. You will see something along the same line as in Firefox, just uncheck that box.

In internet Explorer, go to Tools>Internet Options.  Under Home page type in http://www.yahoo.com and click OK.  That's it!

Unfortunately, the new homepage hasn't been completely developed to work in all browsers, including the new Internet Explorer Beta. I'm sure they're working on it as we speak, but until it's ready there's no way to make it show up. You can see for yourself by going to http://www.yahoo.com/preview

then you neecd to re-install it.  are you using maybe net scape instead?  are you using aol?  if so, IE  isn't your default, so you nbeed to be logged online before you can use it, but you can then set it to be your home page default.

If you mean how do you make the AT&T browser your home page so it's the one that opens each time you start your computer.....\n\nClick start > control panel > internet options (or if you're at the IE browser click tools > internet options)\nGeneral tab > copy/paste this address: http://dsl.sbc.yahoo.com/\nClick Use Current button > OK\n\nYou can change your home page to anything you want at any time by inserting the particular web site address. Hope this helps.\n\nplrr

In Internet Explorer, click on Tools > Internet Options.\n\nA box will pop up. The first item in the box will say Home Page: and there will be a field in which to type in any URL you wish to make your default home page. Type in:\n\nwww.yahoo.com\n\nThen click Apply and OK at the bottom.

Load Internet Explorer.... then open the page you want to be your default home page.. (for instance yahoo page)... just click <tools>, <internet options>, <Use Current> then press OK... close Internet Explorer.. then try loading it again...

Let me see if I have this straight. Someone sent you a web link in a Yahoo instant message and the web page will not open? What does AOL have to do with this? Are you sure the link is a good one? Please clarify your problem.\n\n1/18/06 Thanks for updating your question. I assume you have a 'default' browser setting. In other words, your system knows to open a particular browser when you click on a link (i.e. a link in a message). Even though you use AOL as an internet provider you do NOT have to use their browser. I assume you are aware of that as well. I suggest you download Mozilla Firefox as a browser. Not sure this will cure this problem but it is a very fast, user friendly browser. Email me at kenburnham2001@yahoo.com if you are still having problems.

Yahoo is not a browser, it is a Web site. Are you using Internet Explorer or Mozilla FireFox? It is easy to set Yahoo! as your homepage. Just go into the internet options and type in Yahoo.com

use the firefox support to help you set it up as default if enough info wasn't given above. Also, some websites need IE (it happens and it sucks) luckily some guys have made add-ons, be sure to get open in IE tab for your firefox, it beats hassling with actually opening up IE.

If you are talking about wanting to keep aol and still get ride of the aol thing down at the bottom, try this\n\nRight click on the taskbar, go to properties. You should see Taskbar and Start Menu Properties, now go to Customize, and scroll down until you see AOL, to the far right, you should see Hide When Inactive, click that, and put Always Hide, and that will make it where you won't see it unless you click the < to the left of the monitors icons, then you should see it.\n\nIf you have anymore questions, just let me know and i will see if i can help you.\n\nBy the way, most of the time i only have like 2 to 5 icons in my taskbar, but if i click the < i can see like 15 icons. But at least its less annoying than having all those icons show up all the time.\n\nBy the way, the AOL will still be active, you just can't see it without press the <

Explorer: Go up to the 'Tools' Menu (located at the top along with the file menu, etc).  Select 'Internet Options'.  Fill the desired address in under the 'General' tab where it says home page.\n\nFireFox and Netscape are the same, except 'Internet Options' is just 'Options', and it has location instead of address in the home page section.
