How do I turn the new tab page off?

I followed the 'New tab page - show, hide...' answer and I can change the information in the box to 'about:blank' . But when I click 'OK' the contents of the 'value' field in the 'browser.newtab.url' remains the same. In other words it didn't change it to what I entered. Why??

An unwanted add-on is probably hijacking your new tab page.
