Why Google is launched in my type of bar when I open Firefox?
When I open the web page using Firefox the type in the bar is listed as Google? Why, Firefox is not my web browser?
Google is a search engine, not a "web browser". Firefox features search engine Google by default, but you can easily use any search engine you want by changing the search engine in the search bar.

There are / were three problems:
1. why, when I open Firefox 9.01 this I get a message that I don't have the most recent when version help > on Firefox said I do?
2 also, with version 8 of xx, I was unable to open a new window with a right-click, until I upgraded to 9.01. (Old problem now, but I'm curious).
3 when I tried to uninstall the old version of the uninstall program told me that I had to close the open version, but it was closed according to my taskbar. I also have this problem with Thunderbird.1. you are using the latest version which is Firefox version 9.0.1
From your description, it seems that if you still have the old start page for Firefox http://www.google.com/firefox hosted by Google as your homepage. This old default home page is no longer used as topic: Home is in use since Firefox 4.0
Ignore the message, change the homepage of topic: Home, replace it with another page or leave blank.

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

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:

Why Support of Firefox home page load when I open firefox?
Why Support of Firefox home page load when I open firefox? I'm on Dial-Up and I have my homepage to Yahoo.com. Home page of Firefox Support both Yahoo.com pages load at the same time. It takes too much time. I already read the homepage of support and have no need every time I load Firefox. How can I stop it each time to load?
Implement: config and filter support.mozilla.com (if that's the page you mention actually) to see source. Also check that you have only a single home page in tools > general and that you bring to the top of the previous session, see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
If you have a very close tab, then this is a pinned tab app. You can detach an app tab by right-clicking on the tab and choosing "unpin tab '.

This started to happen after I eliminated a shop at home app
These instructions also apply to Mac (Tools > Modules > Extensions)
You can use one of them to start Firefox in Safe Mode:
- On Mac, hold the Options key when starting Firefox
- Help > restart with disabled modules
I noticed in the list of system details you might have two installed Silverlight plugins.
- Version 5.1.2.17113
- Version 4.9.1.16010
Is this true?
You can find the installation path of the plugins on the topic: plugins page.

I used to get a single tab, my Google homepage when I launched Firefox. Then one day I downloaded Google Chrome because I had trouble running an application. After that, when I launch Firefox, I get three tabs, a Gmail, a Home Page of Google and a browser that reads chrome://browser/content/newtab/newTab.xul - also, I get spammed like crazy and I was not before. I have my active spam blocker. I also downloaded a few flip something because I fell for the pop-up ad that said it would speed up my download speed. I have since uninstalled Google Chrome and I thought the flip thing, but I still get three launch windows and too many spam.

Strange, since Google shouldn't do that. Maybe it was an installer bundled masquerading as official?
To start your cleaning efforts, please check your home page settings. Do you get the 3 tabs when you press command + n to start a new window? If so, the additional URLS can be added to your home page in the Preferences dialog box. These articles describe where to find that. Notes that it can be difficult to see all the details of this area due to the limited space available, so often it is easier to delete everything and paste the desired URL.
Then please check your extensions, as they can override your settings. I suggest disable all non-essential or unrecognized extensions on page modules. Either:
- Command + shift + a
- Tools menu > Modules
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, when in doubt, turn off. (Or so obviously bad, delete).
Typically, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.
Any improvement?

Everytime I open another window of Firefox, the address bar is empty. If I type in an address, it will navigate the site but all subsequent sites will not appear in the address bar.

Yes, try to disable them.

Why can't I eject my flash drives safely when you run Firefox?
When I market/internet browsing on Firefox. I can't eject my flash drives safely. each time, I get this:
"Problem ejecting USB Mass Storage device - this legacy is currently in use. Close any programs or windows that might be using the device, and then try again. »
Flash drives are not used most of the time, except when I record something for them. Nothing is using them and all the stops and other things are accomplished, but I can't safely eject when Firefox is running. I have to close Firefox to eject safely. I can't in safe mode, however. Is a weird glitch, or something else happens with Firefox?
I found the culprit using Process Explorer. It is RecordingManager.exe which is part of the extension RealDownloader 1.3.0 from RealNetworks Inc.. I could see it was making reference to my letter of the USB drive, don't have however no idea why it was.
Kill the RecordingManager.exe process while leaving the FF running meant I could now eject the USB key.
Deactivation of the FF extension has prevented the problem from happening again.
