I have currently Internet Explorer 8, and was wondering, is there any way of setting it such that, without changing my current homepage, when I open a new tab it comes up with Wikipedia straight away, rather than the usual page of options? The only way I can see from a quick look around the toolbars is having the site open as a second tab every time I start the internet, which I do not particularly want.

I asked a question a while ago about why pinging localhost on my own Windows 7 computer suddenly stopped working (old question). The answer seemed to be that Microsoft doesn't like ping and disabled it, and that there's some arduous and undocumented method you have to go though to enable the "echo server". However I discovered today that pinging my ip address from this site works as expected so my computers echo server must be online and working. But I still can't ping localhost from my own computer. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? 82.44.55.25 (talk) 16:07, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Does the RAmos T9 portable media player run Android? If not are there any good portable media players out there running android with a screen that is at least the size of that of the iPod Touch? --Melab±1 ☎ 19:10, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
In html, I know how to specify alternative text. But how can you specify an alternative image? 82.44.55.25 (talk) 22:43, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
