    How do I change the default Web Browser in XP home? :(
    I have been using Avant and it is more user friendly. :)

    Start Avant Home Page then click on Tools\Internet Options in the General Tab under Home Page Click on Use Current then click Apply and OK. Is this what you mean? If not do this: Type in regedit at the run command. Follow this path: Start\Run\regedit\H_KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\InternetExplorer\Main\Default_Page_Url. Right click on Default_Page_Url click on Modify then type in the home page address that you want to use. Click OK and exit the registry. I hope this is what you were looking for.
