Oh you may be right then - I never used the defaults here. I used the
following patch for quite some time now (In the 2.x series i was adding
the unhandled stuff as it wasn't there yet),. It does the following things:

1. Set default landing page to hostgroups overview
2. Add some javascript magic to allow logo transparency in PNG's on IE6
(For simplicity's sake I just rename my custom png logo to 'sblogo.jpg').
3. Change the links as follow:
a. Unhandled Services:
Host Status Types: Pending | Up
Host Properties: Not In Scheduled Downtime & Has Not Been
Acknowledged
Service Status Types: All Problems
Service Properties: Not In Scheduled Downtime & Has Not Been
Acknowledged & Notifications Enabled

b. Unhandled Hosts:
Host Status Types: All problems
Host Properties: Not In Scheduled Downtime & Has Not Been
Acknowledged & Notifications Enabled
Service Status Types: All
Service Properties: Any

You can safely delete any hunk you don't want in it (i.e. if you want
only the links patch delete the first patch completely and the first
hunk (whole block starting with '@@ [...]') of the 2nd patch; the rest
should apply fine)
