Hi,

This is in fact possible, using a cool little piece of software called Stuffplug. Along with many other useful features, making your inbox open in your default browser is an option. If you have a version of messenger up to 8.5, then you can download stuffplug from their website, which is linked below.

Unfortunately, Stuffplug is incompatible with Windows Live Messenger 2009. Although WLM 09 automatically opens your inbox in your default browser, it requires you to log in each time when using Firefox. This is due to Microsoft 'not willing to risk' sending user information over a non-Microsoft based program.

It seems there is currently no option to open your inbox using internet Explorer whilst you are using a different default browser. The stuffplug team are (slowly) working on a new version, but there is no expected release date thus far, and whether it is even possible to bypass this sign-in problem is yet to be seen.

if you want to use multible home pages, go to tools, then options then go to the main tab (the one wit the light switch on it). when you see a fill in the blank, tipe in the website(s) you want to use when you start up the internet.
