Making IExplore extremely fast

[dr.nil]

This is a handy little trick you can use with Internet Explorer 6 to make it boot up extremely fast
Make a shortcut of iexplore on your desktop ... right-click on the shortcut to Internet Explorer and add the parameter '-nohome' to the end of the command line, like so:

Target: Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" -nohome

Have you used IE7.
I find IE7 much faster than its previous version..and wait IE8 is going to come.

[WhiteScOpe]

I find IE7 unbarible...
It looks ugly
and wheres all the buttons gone??

hi.. man just did u said.. BUT I CANT EDIT TARGET LOCATION ..
USING VISTA ULTIMATE..
IS IT APPLICABLE IN GPRS?

[WhiteScOpe]

the FULL target should be:
"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" -nohome
if you want it to work...
not just
Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" -nohome


i think this is where people are going wrong, by the sounds of it

ohh sorry man u didnt got wt i wana say to u
ACTUALLY WEN I OPEN SHORTCUT PROPERTIES.
THERE IS WRITTEN
TARGET TYPE...
TARGET LOCATION
TARGET.....

SO WHERE I SHOULD GIV DAT COMMAD U WROTE.. IN TARGET.. THE EDITING OPTION IS NOT AVAILABLE...
HOPE U WILL SORT OUT...

[WhiteScOpe]

Does this help?

tbh mate i don't know...
i installed vista but 5 minuites later i uninstalled it again....it bugged me that much

tbh as i said probs before this little trick only makes internet explorer start up faster...
your alturnative is to set your home page to "about:blank"
this also gives you a blank home page. basicly the same thing.
Try it and see if it helps

Infact...this should work with firefox or any other browser

haha pleasure dude...
its just like count legs ov sheeps and divide it by 4
i got it but in vista ABOUT BLANK is not working:-0
any way thanx for time and participation
