Changing what? Try using RegMon to find out where the unwanted
reference is coming from. My guess is that it is the value sometimes
used by WindowsUpdate or IE itself when they want to show you
something first and then allow you to use your Home page.

What happens if you allow that first link to happen
and then subsequently open another instance with about:Blank
and then press Alt-Home on it?
