Hi wbricki,
You should look at this article on this specific issue and Preferences not savedarticle. It should give you all the information you need!
If this does not work:
- Enter about: config in the address bar
- Click I'll be careful, I promise you if prompted
- In the filter field, type Startup
- Double click on startup.homepage_override_url
- Delete the text string, and then click OK
- Close Firefox and reopen the window to check that it worked.
Hope this helps!

How can I get FireFox to work on the first version of the Google ChromeBook? Everytime I open it it said to update or upgrade to FireFox and make it your main page. So I downloaded it and it's open once it is installed, but then a message appears that says "can't stand" search for an application that supports FireFox and its software, or something of the sort. I was sitting here with a full battery when I started and now it is dead... and I still don't have FireFox on my ChromeBook.
What do I do now or how do I get it to work? And if it just simply won't work on a CHromeBook then they need to have that riht out in the open.
Hello
I had a peek in this and was informed that Firefox does not work on Chrome OS.
It is designed and done a little differently from the likes of Windows and Linux and will not support another browser being installed.

Try Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there.
A way of solving problems, which disables most of the modules.
(If you use it, switch to the default theme).- You can open the mode without failure of Firefox 4.0 + by pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
- Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.

If it's good in Firefox Safe mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.

Whenever I post on my blog, it appears at the bottom:
// <![CDATA[ <div id="" class="_mp3rocket_overlay_style" style="left: ; top: ; width: ; height: "> // ]]>
How can I get rid of him?
Is the mp3rocket name ring a Bell? It may be related to a browser add-on. You might check and possibly disable or remove such an add-on here:
Orange Firefox button or classic menu Tools > Modules
Try the Extensions and Plugins categories.
If she seems not related to an add-on, perhaps it's something added by a Wordpress plugin or theme of your blog. If you provide a link to your blog, a volunteer here could take a look and see if they get the same text.
