No Home in IE

Blanked out

You can open Internet Explorer to a blank page.

Sometimes your normal home page may be too busy, or slow to load when you just want to pop out to a different location.

This trick will give you a blank slate to paste in a new URL.

Create a new Desktop shortcut
(Right click an empty spot on the desktop and choose New>Shortcut)
Copy the following, and paste it as the target for the shortcut:
```
"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" nohome
```
Name the shortcut something like Blank IE
