Everytime I open a new tab in firefox. I get this page powered by Bing search engine. I DON'T WANT TO.
I opened a new tab in firefox, and every time I get a new search engine powered by Bing. I love bing first, then the random image shows a panic all triggered a massive anxiety. I don't need this shit.
There was another post which apparently "solved" the problem, but IT DOES NOT WORK. I tried to go to about: config so don't tell me that. What can I do to solve the problem of firefox.
WELL. My wonderful girlfriend showed me how to solve this problem since I couldn't find a solution during troubleshooting of Firefox. BASICALLY. I restarted firefox. And voila it's fixed.

Every time I open a new tab, I want Firefox to go to the homepage of Google http://www.google.com/. Now when I open a new tab, the tab is empty. Therefore, I have to click on the Home icon on the upper right corner - the icon with the little house. How do you make firefox go to the homepage of Google every time an open a new tab?
Install this module, then in the options of the module, set the page you want to open in each new tab: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
- Set options for an extension: Modules > Extensions, click Options next to the extension.

How can I keep search Babalon from appearing everytime I open a new tab?
I used to have the problem that whenever I open Firefox, my homepage, motor of research and new tabs were all Babalon search. I managed to get rid of the search engine, and I think I've fixed to the homepage, but everytime I open a new tab need me always in search of Babalon. I removed all the AddOns that are associated with Babalon, I have also removed/uninstalled programs Babalon. I even tried simply to block the Web site, but that doesn't seem to work. All suggestions are welcome! Thank you!

I uninstalled Snap.do but not completely erase my whole history, nothing has worked so far. Whenever I open a new tab in Firefox, Snap.do is like the search bar. What a pain!
If you don't like to reset, follow these steps: go in firefox > addons > extensions and remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, the things that you have not installed intentionally, I don't know what purpose they serve, etc.). also, go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software you have in place and various other tools such as the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.
Remove a toolbar that has supported your Firefox or the homepage search

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.

Firefox does not open a new tab page, when I click on the small + firefox does not respanw, but if I use right mouse botton -> tab double as it opens a new tab how can I solve this?
Uninstall the toolbar Ask and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask and Firefox toolbar that prevents the opening of new tabs.
There are a few places to check for the Ask toolbar:
- Check the control panel Windows for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
- Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons
