Getting Rid of Wildcard Char. Behide Homepage URL

Gooday everyone,

When shopping at my website, Customers have multiple ways to return to my Homepage, namely, by clicking the "Home" hyperlink or the Header banner hyperlink etc. I noticed that sometimes, there are some trailing char. behide the Homepage hyperlink like the following:
http://www.myhaven.com/index.php?main_page=index

Could anyone advise me on how can I get rid of all the wildcard characters that is trailing the Homepage URL?
Change from:
http://www.myhaven.com/index.php?main_page=index
To:
http://www.myhaven.com/index.php?main_page=index
or:
http://www.myhaven.com/

TIA for your kind advices.

EDITED: Never, ever post the zen_id or zenAdminID (session id) in a forum, email, newsgroup, newsletter, advertisement, etc. etc. etc. or you will be doomed ... :eek:
