    click tools, internet options, on 'tabs' click settings then tick the box to set home page for new tabs instead of blank page, then close all explorer pages and it should be ok

    Paulsm,what I did was open tab, open the homepage I wanted in a tab. Once it was open I clicked on the little arrow next to the little house on the toolbar, and selected add or change homepage.If it displays the homepage you want select "use this webpage as your only homepage" and click yes.
    This resolved things for me.Hope it helps
