If you are using Apache check out .htaccess. You should see something like:

# Enable this rewrite rule to point to the controller/action that should 
serve root.
# RewriteRule ^$ /controller/action [R]

Simply uncomment and put the controller and action you want to direct 
to. If the action is index than you can leave off the action part.
