This is a handy little trick you can use with Internet Explorer 6 to make it boot up extremely fast
Make a shortcut of iexplore on your desktop ... right-click on the shortcut to Internet Explorer and add the parameter '-nohome' to the end of the command line, like so:
Target: Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" -nohome

Yes ... if you make about:blank your home page ... it'll load the default page .. you can see it in the registry .. somewhere like hkey_local_machine -- software -- microsoft -- internet explorer. and if the above mentioned parameter is specified .. the explorer will open with no page.
