re: Protected startup page in IE 8 Sunday, June 7, 2009 at 9:22 am Windows Vista Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Charlie Hadden (1338 messages posted) IE 8 does not do this on it's own. It sounds like possibly an existing (hidden)malware attacked when you updated. I would look into that. Just in case you don't not know (I'm sure you do), you can NORMALLY choose any page as you opening/home page, via Tools/Internet options/Use Current. And you can choose a blank page before you do the "use current" selection.
