New Tabs open Blank

L

LMO

Aloha all. Minor issue, but annoying...Vista Home Premium, IE7. When I open
a new tab I get the Blank Tab page. I have checked the Internet Tools item
for Open Home Page instead of a Blank page, but no joy. How can I get a new
tab to open to my home page...like I checked?
Thanks all!

Start IE > if the system menu isn't showing press the Alt key > Tools >
Internet Options > in the "Tabs" section click the "Settings" button > check
the "Open home page for new tabs instead of black page" checkbox > click any
OKs

I already did that, and the new tab still comes up blank. Any other ideas?
This worked fine under XP, but isn't working under Vista.

Do you have a homepage set?

Homepage is set to Yahoo. When I open IE, it opens to Yahoo, but when I open
a new tab, it opens blank (Vista Home Premium).
Thanks.

Do you have 2 homepages perhaps .. is Yahoo right at the top of the list?

When the blank page opens, check the box that says something like "Don't
show this again"

He has. In this instance, it's *actually* called "I have checked the
Internet Tools item ...".

So is there no way to open a new tab to the home page in Visa Home Premium?
I could do this in XP no problem.
Thanks.
