    What exactly do you mean? Are you talking about the default homepage in IE?
    Are you using Internet Explorer and going to Asus's MSN?
    In that case, I recommend you use a better browser, or you can just pick a different homepage. To do that is simple, just go to options and then internet options. Then just change the home page to whatever you want.

    I don't quite follow you. It sounds like you're talking about ads on webpages? There's not much you can do about that aside from wiping the cache on your browser.

    Some browsers have the ability to block ads altogether.
    You might want to look into that.

    You could just change the default homepage setting to whatever webpage you want.

    Yes,
    Navigate to whatever page you would lie to see as your homepage (Google, Yahoo or whatever), in the top bar select "Tools">"Internet Options" and under "Home page" select the "Use current" button. :)

    I don't really understand exactly what the problem is.
