Everytime I open a new tab, a Web site opens upward, even if I put a page white as the opening page. How can I stop this?
When I open a new tab, it automatically changes to "http://www.bigseekpro.com/search/dns/anyvideo2dvd/{F8DC2913-2606-401B-8AED-0345AD711130}? q =bigseekpro.com/anyvideo2dvd/{F8DC2913-2606-401B-8AED-0345AD711130}? s_src = newta.
This started after I installed a software recently. I uninstalled this software now. I even put the page as "empty". Also, click on the button "restore default".
But the problem persists.
(it is not happen when I open firefox, only happens when I open a new tab, while firefox is already open)
How can I change this back to normal? I need only a blank page to open.
- In the address bar, type Subject: config and press ENTER.
- In the filter at the top, type: keyword. URL
- Double click top and delete everything in it and replace it with http://www.google.com/search?q=
The URL to add in "keyword. URL"becomes a link in this message, right-click and choose"Copy link location"to copy it to the Windows Clipboard. Then press CTRL + V to paste. You have to type all of this saves.
If your homepage has changed too, follow these steps.
- Go to the site you want to set as your home page. If you want a blank page, type: Subject: empty in the address bar and press ENTER.
- Go to Tools | Options | General .
- Make sure that it says in the first drop 'show my home page'.
- Click on the button called "use current Pages' to set the home page to the one you have on the screen.
After completing the steps above, install this add-on to prevent another search engine to change your preferences: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/browserprotect/

This problem has only just begun and I don't know why. When I click the icon to open the Firefox browser, my homepage tab opens and another new tab opens to the sides of my Home Page tab. I checked and none are tube not characters in my address of the home page.
This seems to take place (e.g., Firefox opens my home page AND a new tab at startup - unsolved).

When I double-click an attachment in and by e-mail, whether it's a file pdf, Word, Powerpoint, Excel files, or anything else, it always opens a file save dialog box and I have to choose where to save the file first, before I open it. I'm used to just file open and then if I want to record I'll save slot in the document and save it. How can I change the settings so that's how are treated attachments? This problem is there for whatever else I'm looking for e-mails, whether through Hotmail or OWA... Thank you!

When I open a link that opens a new Firefox window, it opens 2 tabs instead of one. A tab is the link that I opened and the second tab is just a generic Mozilla tab with links to 12 pages like Facebook, Youtube, etc. This tab opens on top too, so I always have to close to get what I'm looking for. How can I stop this from happening?
Hello. Thanks for all the posts on this topic. I have the same problem, as described by the op. But, while I use Avast, I have NOT the add-on from Astromenda which has been mentioned. However, I have the SB installed toolbar, and it has been recently updated, 29/12. I suspect that it is the culprit, if this problem is in fact not caused by an update of Firefox (my tiles have recently been reset on new tabs, and I suspect that Firefox for this problem).
I am ready to remove the toolbar from the SB, but prefer to keep it (Yes, I admit I'm stupid) If this annoying 'new window = 2 tabs with 'new tab' at the top' would just leave.
Apart from the removal of the toolbar SB... does anyone have suggestions? I don't see that all recently added add-ons/extensions that I don't recognize, apart from the update of the toolbar of SB.
Updated: 5 minutes after this announcement, I disabled the toolbar of SB and restarted Firefox. No change.

When my Captivate project is published on my LMS, course opens a new window. You are able to copy the URL of this window and access the course without logging into the LMS. How can I avoid this?
Return to your LMS administrator and ask them why they have not put in place more firmly. The scenario you mention should not occur if the LMS is well attached.
Some LMS have the contents of the course are in a folder outside the web space so that users can access the course URL directly. For example, Moodle t - it this way and then shot the course content in a temporary folder when the learner clicks on the link ask a module. No matter how your LMS is supposed to do, it is currently not configured correctly.
