I guess the biggest problem with protest voting is it doesn't say much other than "I don't like any of these guys". Its demands are little more than "give me other options". So, as a strategy for policy change, it seems ineffective. Perhaps if united with a large-scale civil movement, it may work, but not by itself. Wikipedia has some historical examples of major voter abstention.
