When I open a new Tab, it's filled with an unwanted site. How do I open a blank page in a new Tab?

Seems like an unscrupulous web site had made itself the default New Tab location. Every time I open a new tab, the unscrupulous site appears. I simply want a blank page when I open a new tab. How do I get rid of this "default" new tab setting?

If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:
