//www.excite.com, just so I can see the news headlines before I go to DPC. Now if DPC would put a news headline section, I wouldn't need to visit another site on the web. :-)
Mainly because I frequently want to open a new browser window, and I don't want to have to wait for the "home page" to load. By having it set to "about:blank", I can click on the little "e" icon in the QuickLaunch bar and get a new browser window instantly. This is better than File > New > Window, which duplicates whatever page you are currently viewing (but I do find that useful on occasion).

Great idea. I never thought of it. May be time for a change...
DPC. Though I have turned my scores off - and for the past couple of weeks that includes not even just turning them on and off again to get a quick glimpse: makes Monday/Wednesday much more nerve-wracking :-)
