• There seems to be a MAJOR problem (blocking/memory leak) in "subject: House", also known as the Firefox Start Page, at 26.0 Firefox on Windows!

  There seems to be a MAJOR problem (blocking/memory leak) in "subject: House", also known as start up Firefox, 26.0 Firefox Page, Windows!

  seen on:
  -Windows 7 x 64 machine with 12 GB of RAM and high performance CPU (core i7-920)
  -Comments Machine virtual WinXP SP3 (in Oracle VirtualBox) running on the same computer
  -Intel Atom D525 netbook with 4 GB of RAM, running Win7 x 64

  None of these machines are connected through Sync or something like that. The Firefox instance on the virtual machine is a fresh install / clean.

  The problem:
  -100% of cpu usage for 10 seconds, (util in XP) memory usage goes up to 1.7 GB
  -If "subject: House" is actually the Firefox Start Page, it blocks the computer at startup of Firefox for 10 seconds
  -If "subject: House" isn't the Firefox Start Page, startup is fine - BUT if I press the "home" on the toolbar button it loads "on: House" which causes the same question once again

  Sounds that there is a problem with one of the code snippets that are responsible. I've seen several reports on this issue.

  You can set the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref an empty string on the subject: the page of config to disable loading (new) checked to see if that helps.

• I can't get rid of the Firefox start page even if I continue to put in my own home page.

  Suddenly, earlier today, the Firefox start page appears when I open Firefox. I tried several times to return to my own homepage through TOOLS, OPTIONS or by drag-and - drop. Whenever I get close and reopen, it comes back to its own Start Page for Firefox. I don't want to, I want my own hpmepage.

  Hey Hey,

  Try the following:

  (1) go to Subject: config (type in the address bar).

  (2) enter.

  (3) search browser.startup.homepage.

  (4) this variable controls what page is loaded when you start Firefox.

  If its value is Subject: Home, you can change this value on the site that you want to load at startup. If not, try this:

  Citing cor - el:

  ================

  Have you checked the target line in the properties of the desktop Firefox shortcut?

  What is the start setting?

     Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts":
     "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
     "Show my home page"
     "Show a blank page"
  

  ================

  To change this Web site, it opens when you open a new tab, do the same thing but with browser.newtab.url.
