Home Page Selection
I am running Ie5 under Win ME.
Under Win 98 and Ie4 I could designate the (Pprune) Rumours page as my start-up page.
Now I can only get the home page (even after writing the whole URL and going to options for the 'use this page' move),as a startup This gets me a click away from where I want to be- I thus get quite puffed before I can start to peruse Pprune.
Is this a plot or is there a fix.
Suggestions please!

The PPRuNe home page is actually a framed page. This means that it will always display www.pprune.org in the Location Bar.
What you need to do is start at the home page, click on "Forums" in the little menu at top left of the page. Wait for that to load, and you will notice that that little menu is still there, and the address is still the same. Now scroll down until you find the forum you are looking for. Right-click this forum and a pop-up menu will appear. Select "Open in New Window" (in Netscape) or "Open Link in New Window" (in IE5). You will notice in the new window that the frame has now disappeared, taking the menu with it, and the correct address is now shown in the Location Bar. Now in IE5, select the Tools Menu, Internet options and click on the "Use Current" button. In Netscape, select the Edit menu, Preferences, Click on "Navigator" in the left-hand window, then click on "Use Current Page".
Your home page is now set at the correct forum.
