It is possible that your security (firewall, antivirus) software blocks or limit Firefox or the process of plugin-container without you inform, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.
Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and allow your firewall to ask permission to get access full and unrestricted, again to install for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

I always opened, 20 + tabs on Firefox and it is together to remember. However, when I open Firefox the first tab changes that I had opened it in my homepage, Google. I can use the thing "go back" to go to the page that I had there, but going back to Google every time I restart the browser that becomes tedious.
The only way to solve what I've found is to just stop trying to use the first tab and either Google. However, I want a real solution stop if possible.
Who are normal tabs or pinned tabs?
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

When I open Firefox, I get a page of e-mail, which is operated by Verizon. How can I eliminate this connection from Verizon? It requires me to have an account with Verizon that relates to a telephone service at my home. It is a nonsense. I'm operating an iMac with system 10.6.8.
It is possible that your ISP sends such a page in the case of certain conditions, then you may need to contact them for support.
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.

Today, I had a lot of trouble with my computer. I think that he was attacked by something underhanded, but I managed to stop it and fix everything. Everything about this thing.
When I open the firefox browser, it will not automatically to my home page, despite having followed all the instructions to do this. Instead, it opens in an engine search called 'awesomehp' that, previously, never heard and never installed. When I click on the 'home' - button, it goes to my real home page, and everything is ok.
I tried to uninstall it... "awesomehp" engine of research, but it ALWAYS appears automatically when I open FireFox. Why? And this is even after I have reset FireFox settings by default once.
Why this happens, and what can I do about it?
Looks like you picked up a pirate of the page. See this for help to get rid of it:

Huh, that's news...
You can try Firefox in Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. I think that it is an extension.
- Run firefox.exe - safe-mode in the search bar in the Start Menu. (Make sure Firefox is closed)
Have you added new extensions recently around the time this started happening? The details of your system displays the following:
