a friend of mine wants yahoo set as default home page after xp installed, nlite doesn't have yahoo option

so i edited the last session & winnt.sif as below: however when internet explorer is opened msn.com is opened

i tried www.yahoo.com & also http://www.yahoo.com/ , is there something missing to make yahoo the default?

thank you & happy holidays to all

nlite last session:

Internet Explorer-Set Homepage-www.yahoo.com

winnt.sif :

[branding]

BrandIEUsingUnattended=Yes

Home_Page=http://www.yahoo.com/

I sometimes use the $OEM$ folder to set a default website.

In the cmdlines.txt i set the following command:

[Commands]

"REGEDIT /S WebsiteDefault.reg"

Put this in the reg file:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

;Changes Main Web Page to Planet.nl

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]

"Start Page"="http://www.yahoo.com"

WebsiteDefault.reg file hase to be in the same folder as the cmdlines.txt
