Stage 4: Customize start, Search, and online support pages
You can specify the URLs for the start, Search, and online support pages.
Customize the start and Search pages
Start page URL
The start page, sometimes known as a home page, appears when the user clicks the Home button. Internet Explorer can show a default home page, or you can specify a URL for your own page. Enter the URL that you want in the Start Page URL box, and then click Test URL to ensure that it's correct. To have Internet Explorer use its default URL, click Use Default.
Search pane URL
The Search page appears in a pane called an Explorer bar. This pane enables the user to see the search query and search results at the same time. The page that appears in the pane comes with a choice of search engines. You can overwrite this page if you want; for more information, see Setting Up a Custom Search Page.
Specify an online support page for your browser
In Internet Explorer, a support page is available by clicking Help, and then clicking Online Support. It's recommended that you develop a support page and make it available to your users.
Online support page URL
Enter the URL of your custom support page in the Online support page URL box, and then click Test URL to test it.
