New Tabs

When I open a new tab within vista it says blank instead of showing my homepage "Google"

Any advice?

    It does this by default, but you can change it
    1. Open Internet Explorer
    2. Click the Tools button, and then click Internet Options.
    3. Click the General tab, and then, under Tabs, click Settings.
    4. In the Tabbed Browsing Settings dialog box, select the Open home page for new tabs instead of a blank page check box, and then click OK twice
