Even thought I have changed preferences (several times) to have IceWeasel open to a blank page, it keeps pulling up
========= SCRAPER REMOVED AN EMBEDDED LINK HERE ===========
url was:"http://antix.mepis.com/index.php/Main_Page"
linktext was:"http://antix.mepis.com/index.php/Main_Page"
====================================
at start.

Is this a marketing ploy <grin> or a bug?

I don't think I'm doing anything incorrectly, since I'm running Firefox on four other systems and have them sit to open to the blank page.

from the menu navigate Fluxbox > File Editing > Menu
look for [exec] (Browser) {Iceweasel

linktext was:"http://antix.mepis.com"

}
remove

save
exit

Open Iceweasel and in preferences choose your start page or about:blank

I don't think so, Tim.

I was referring to the idea of being rid of anti's web site forever. In other words, even if antix.freeforus.org isn't the default page, I will still be visiting it.
