messag on the monitor each time IE is started. Can anyone help?

Andrew, you really are insane. Every time I think you can't possibly
post more ridiculous drivel, you amaze me. Go away. You are worse than
useless.

To "nziese" - I'm not a scripting person but please ignore Andrew E. He
has been a destructive and disruptive person on these newsgroups for a
long time and you should not take his advice.

If you don't get an answer from some of the scripting wizards regulars
like Pegasus or Wesley Vogel, you might check on TechNet in the Script
Center:

How about launching Internet Explorer from a batch file?

You have to use the bat file to start IE.

Create a batch file with this as the first line...

start iexplore

Add the rest of your stuff below the first line.

Or add your message to a .txt file.

Then use this line...

start iexplore c:\path to whatevername.txt

IE will start with the message displayed in IE.

You can also use...

start iexplore page

where page is the Web page address for the Web page that you want to appear
when Internet Explorer starts.

I tried all of these and they worked fro me.

Examples...
start iexplore http://www.google.com/advanced_search?hl=en

start iexplore.exe C:\Documents and Settings\Wesley P.
Vogel\Desktop\MESSAGE.txt

start iexplore.exe %userprofile%\Desktop\MESSAGE.txt

Someone else may have something better, but I had fun. :-D

Another way:

- - - - -
<!-- saved from url=(0028)http://www.winhelponline.com -->
<html><head>
<title></title>
<script language="Javascript">
alert('Your message goes here');
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body></html>
- - - - -

Copy the above code to Notepad, and save as homepage.htm (in your preferred
location). Set this htm file as the homepage.
