My father is 82 and likes to use the computer. It would help him if IE would load and display when the computer is switched on. It is set to dial up automatically when IE is opened.
Thanks,

Add Internet Explorer to Programs, Startup which will invoke it at start up.

Open up the folder
C:/documents and settings/fathersaccount/start menu/programs/start up
Right click (in the folder) New Shortcut
browse to My computer/c/program files/internet explorer/ and choose the file Iexplore.
This means IE starts automatically when your father logs into his account on the pc.0 -
Thanks every body!
Merry Xmas & Happy New year to you all,
