How can I stop a URL not desired to load everytime I open a new tab?
All of a sudden now everytime I open a new tab, I'm getting a CVS site for cheap pills.
Do a check with some malicious software malware scanning programs.
You need to scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.

Help! A few days previously, toolbar 'Advanced search Nation' (SIN) began to appear when I opened Firefox. I removed the SIN application of my computer that got rid of the toolbar, but now when I click to open a new tab, the tab opens with the URL of NAS. I was not able to prevent this. I downloaded and installed Firefox again, but that has not worked. I used the Spotlight to search for advanced search of Nation, but none were found. I hope someone can help me with this problem, and believe me when I say that I'll be very grateful for any help. Thank you.
Use the searchreset tool and remove a user.js file as possible.

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 load firefox it opens a new tab then my home page. How can I stop the new tab
I just need firefox to open my home page, not to open a new tab
You can check the target line in the shortcut to the Firefox desktop (right click: properties) to make sure that nothing is added after the path to the Firefox program.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.
- Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
- Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

How to select all the text in the address bar when you open a new tab
I changed browser.newtab.url to a Web site with links, that I often use. Now, I have the problem that I don't always want to use one of these links. So when I start typing in the address bar text simply add the URL of my site. The problem would be solved, if the text in the address bar is activated every time when I opened a new tab (I could press each time crtl + of course, but I usually just type)
Is there something in the config, I can change or an Addon?
I had this same problem, but I was able to remedy this by installing this add-on:
https://addons.Mozilla.org/firefox/addon/custom-new-tab/After the installation, remember to go to add-ons, Extensions; Click on the Options button; and select the development of space in the URL bar.

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.
If this answer solved your problem, please click 'Solved It' next to this response when connected to the forum.
Not related to your question, but...
You must update some plug-ins:
- Plugin check: https://www-trunk.stage.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
- Adobe PDF plugin for Firefox and Netscape: Installation/update Adobe Reader in Firefox
- Shockwave Flash (Adobe Flash or Flash): updated Flash in Firefox

whenever I open a new tab, it allows to open directly on the "new tab" page, the one with the thumbnails of your popular and other sites. but instead of showing this, new tabs have been directly opened recently to the firefox home page instead. could someone help me to get it by opening the new tab page, rather than the homepage? Thank you!
Hi Kazibel
go to Subject: config find browser.newtab.url , right-click on it and select reset.
Thank you

URL of hyperlinks in Acrobat (and InDesign) open in new tab/window
I don't really understand why this feature is not yet implemented. I tried to google a workaround solution and found hundreds of messages around this problem. People asking how they could do this since 2002 (the oldest post I could find) maybe earlier.
Please make sure that Acrobat - and also InDesign - get this feature in the next version - because people want to have!
What I speak?
The following functionality:
I understand a textlink or and Image-link in a PDF file.
Because Standard browser settings, most of the people who download a PDF file see the PDF in a browser tab. Now, if they hit one of the links (included in the PDF) the link opens in the same window/tab. The PDF is closed. The only way to get back to the PDF document is to hit the back button on the browser or reload the PDF file. Normally, I like to open these links in a new tab or window. But there is no function in Acrobat, or InDesign to open the link in a new TAB/window.
I know there is a possibillity using JavaScript (app.launchURL ("http://www.MySampleURL.com/someFolder/somePage.html", true) ;))
and it worked. But now because of the security settings for Acrobat X and later it only works if the user changes the settings. Thus, it is therefore more useful because most users do not know how the links work.
So for the moment, there is NO WAY to make the link open in a new tab.
I know not if I link to another file, he askes me where the open - new window, or the same. Why can't you implement it for URL too?
Sorry, I tried all day to fix this. And I don't understand why Adobe doesn't look like a customer there needs (since 2002 or an earlier version).
Since no one has posted a response within two years - I think it would be good for someone to do.
I hate to say this... but is not problem from Adobe to solve simply because Adobe has more the PDF specification. I suggest that join you the Association of PDF (pdfa.org) on how to submit suggestions to have the amended specification. As PDF 2.0 is nearing completion, this will most likely not even be watched until the next set of changes.
As a stop-gap measure a compliant reader may have some sort of setting to support some kind of default behavior (PDF open links in a new tab).
Remember, the purpose of a link (or button as a link), is to take you to an external destination. Currently, there are no facilities within the PDF specification to bring it to manipulate the local user interface. Open a new window or a new tab? If a new windows, what size, position, zoom, rotation, etc. do I? I do it in the foreground or background? How this metadata will be stored in the PDF file? What kind of impact that will have on PDF files and the tools existing? What happens if the local user does not want any of this to happen? Who gets the last word in this matter?
Now, one day, there are many more PDF readers only existed in 2013. Beyond Adobe Reader and FoxIT, pretty much all browsers has one. With OS / X Preview and a bunch of other visualization tools. Not only do you need get the specifications to be changed, but these tools need to support change. And how they implemented it may or may not be what you're asking.
I'm not saying what you ask is impossible, or even offline. Honestly, it looks like a good idea. I just make you aware that the details are in the implementation. A lot of players here must be involved and goes in the same direction.
I hope this helps.
Thank you.

Everytime I open a new tab, all I see is a blank page that says "file not found".
The address bar displays the text "chrome://quick_start/content/index.html". I tried to change the default new tab page, but it never works.
Hi, try this: Type Subject: config in the address bar, press ENTER, accept the warning, scroll to browser.newtab.url and make sure that 'Value' is defined Subject: newtab (right click to change). (Take care of not to change what anyone else).
I hope it will work for you.
