IE7 supports opening multiple home pages. You might have more than one setup.

In the menu bar click 'Tools' then 'Internet Options'.
(If you don't have a menu bar, right mouse click in the blank area next to the tabs and put a check on 'Menu Bar' or rightmouse click your Internet Explorer icon on the desktop and choose properties)

In the 'General' section you will see the box for home page. Delete all the website address in this box except the site you want. If you see 'about:blank' delete those, too. That opens up a blank tab.

You can also close all your tabs and visit a website you like. Then click the 'Use Current' button on the homepage settings. Clicking 'Use Default' will also reset the homepage.
