Set Atariage as the default Start Page

[khryssun]

Why don't add a "Set Atariage as your default Start Page" link at the top or the bottom of the main Atariage page ?

 

Just got that idea because as a lot of people here I'm surfing the web a lot and I'am bothered with some sites (lottos in particular) which change the default start page of my browser without asking.

 

I've got to go to the option menu of my browser to chage the default starting url manually everytime.

 

I'am sure I'am not the only one in this case, and I think It would be usefull to add a "Set Atariage as the default Start Page" link to the main AtariAge page so we'll just have to click on it to redefine The AtariAge web site as the default one.

 

What do you think about it

IMO your browser is having a serious security problem then. If they can change your start page, your PC is almost open to any manipulation

 

IMO you should download the latest patches or switch to a more secure browser immediately.

CWshredder...get it. You've got a hijacker. Most of them aren't serious...but a few are. Best get rid of it completely.

 

And turn that javascripting OFF! You'll foil most of them with that little manuver.

Thanks fellows,

I'am gonna keep a close eye on the situation.

 

I'll try CWshredder and/or maybe I'll install a new browser such Opera, I think it's a good one.

Things like Avant and MyIE2 let you easily turn all of that stuff off and on:

MyIE2 also gives you the option to lock your home page so that no web site can change it, even with scripting turned on. I like MyIE2 better than Opera and you get the same zoom feature.

CWshredder has solved my problem, but as you all suggest I think I'd better switch to a more secure browser.

 

Thanks for the info Duane, I didn't knew MyIE2. It Looks good

 

 

BTW: You made a really nice job with your "To What Degree Do You Love E.T.?" pages !

 

Well I've got a little secret to tell about E.T.
