Use Group Policy Editor (Start->Run->gpedit.msc), and look under User
settings->Administrative templates->Windows components->Internet Explorer.
There is a setting for deactivating the users ability to change the
starting page. This probably disables ALL users ability to change the
starting page. Perhaps including the Administrator account.

To have a better degree of control you need a Windows server with Active
Directory.

(The names for the categories in Group Policy Editor is probably not 100%
correct since I have a Norwegian version of Windows XP..)
