Change homepage shortcut key?

On a work pc, one of my colleagues has managed to make her homepage google. She wants to return to the company defined homepage, but cannot do so through options in IE, as she has no admin access.
Is there a keyboard shortcut to set current page as homepage?
I have vague recollections of seeing this, but with old age comes a fuzzy memory.

    Go to the page you want as your homepage

    If you drag the favicon (the little icon in front of the url in the location bar) onto the home icon, that changes the homepage
