It changes the internet explorer homepage to www.google.com, though you can use anything you like in place of google, perhaps a intranet page?

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 

[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftInternet ExplorerMain]
“Start Page”=”www.google.com“

Simple but powerful, and can be merged to the registry silently using regedit /s, or added to a list of registry hacks.

To use this with kaseya import the below script, change the red to your best practice and away you go.

Script Name: Default IE Page – google
Script Description: Set Default Page on Iternet Explorer.  

IF User Is Logged In
Parameter 1 :
THEN
Set Registry Value
Parameter 1 : HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftInternet ExplorerMainStart Page
Parameter 2 : http://www.google.com
Parameter 3 : REG_SZ
OS Type : 0
ELSE
