about blank is a Browser Helpler Object in geek language. In normal people language it means your browser has been hijacked. Your system is infected with hard to find remove spyware that can change your homepage to about blank page. 'about blank' infections may also slow your computer by consuming system resources. Scan your PC with these, they are both free.
Spybot - Search & Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S&D is free.

You can set anything as your homepage, the "about blank" simply refers to loading a blank page when you open your browser program. If using Internet Explorer go to Tools -> Internet Options -> General tab and set whatever you want as your homepage.
For Mozilla Firefox, Tools -> Options -> Main tab and put whatever you want as your homepage.
