Windows Vista how do you "stop" in vista with IE7? tabs??

Two questions...

I looked everywhere!

1. With XP I had IE 6, if you wanted to stop an action, there was a stop icon, next to the refresh which was next to the home icon. I know the refresh is F5 with IE7, there is still a home icon, but I cant find how to STOP an action Anyone know?? I looked at my keyboard docs but isnt it a IE control?

2. When a new tab opens in Vista, why doesn't it go to my home page? I have to open tab then hit home. Is there a way to set it to open to my homepage?

 

got answer to one ?

How do I open a new tab to my home page?
By default, Internet Explorer displays the Welcome to tabbed browsing page or a blank page when you open a new tab by clicking the New tab button or by pressing CTRL + T. If you prefer that your home page appear when you open a new tab, follow these steps.

To display the home page on new tabs
1. Open Internet Explorer by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Internet Explorer.

2. Click the Tools button, and then click Internet Options.

3. Click the General tab, and then, under Tabs, click Settings.

4. In the Tabbed Browsing Settings dialog box, select the Open home page for new tabs instead of a blank page check box, and then click OK twice.

 

Thanks! I see that lil red x now!
