so what else is it going to do, set it to "about:blank"? many novice users aren't going to know how to change it back to something useful and instead wonder why their browser just brings up a blank page.
Who are these dumb novice n00bs that you are so condescending about? I wish we could just get over this "new internet users are dumb, so we're going to do a dumb thing to help them" thing.
(msn.com is the default for ie on a new computer, remember)
More Adware. Why does a clean install of a browser have to have a default home page anyway?
