There is a Netscape FAQ on this topic at:

Here is what you need to do:
If you wish to disable this feature so that Messenger starts up with a
blank window, do the following:
Exit Communicator by choosing Exit from the File menu. Note: Be sure to
do this as any changes you make to your preferences file will be lost if
any Communicator process is running while you are editing this file.
Check that the mail notifier that runs in the system tray in Windows has
stopped as well. If you have been running java applets, it can take as
much as 30 seconds for all Java applets to stop and Communicator to
exit.
Open your preferences file (prefs.js in Windows) in your favorite text
editor. (Windows users can click the Start button, choose Find, Files or
Folders, type prefs.js, and click Find Now. When you locate your
prefs.js file, right-click it and choose Open With, Notepad.) If there
are multiple profiles on your computer, be sure you are editing the
preferences file for the correct profile. You can safely ignore the "Do
not edit this file" warning in the preferences file while you are
setting this preference.
Add the following line to the bottom of your preferences file:
user_pref("mailnews.start_page.enabled", false);
Save and close the file.
Start Messenger.
This will cause Messenger to start up with an empty message pane rather
than the Netcenter Messenger start page.
