Yahoo default, DNS Doubleclick, Yahoo new tab search

Having just switch to firefox on Mac as your primary browser as Google does not help things to force us to sign every time.

However, even the latest version of Firefox is a big left out. The default search keeps Yahoo food, regardless of how many times you remove it from preferences.

And new tab keeps so reset to Yahoo - little matter how many times change you by change of path browser.newtab.url.

Finally, I have no idea why random new tabs open with Doubleclick DNS - I checked my computer and there is no trace of Doubleclick anywhere. I even disabled ads on all of my Google accounts.

Can anyone give a solution either this portage just on?

Hi errwin, this problem is probably due to one of your addons (adware). If you like, either try to disable the unnecessary addons or Update firefox altogether...

  • I want to set a default "home page" for new tabs

    It * is * that when I open a new tab, the "default home page" (the page that is displayed when I first launch Firefox) would be displayed in the new tab. No more. Looks like you guys that changed. I tried to get this return of '' renewal '' of Firefox, and it does not solve the problem. Initially, the new tabs come totally blank. Now, they come with a tile from several options, apparently reflecting my recent history. The site I want is near the top of this page, but this isn't quite what I want.

    Not only it does not solve the problem, it also seems to have removed my pop up protection! Web sites that was not used to display pop-ups are showing them now! Yes, 'block pop-up windows' is checked in the settings. I think I lost an add-on protection pop up.

  • When I click on the + button on the tape tabs to open a new tab, search.conduit opens. How can I change to get the original firefox tab page?

    Recently, I installed utorrent. The problem began after that. The homepage is Google, but by opening a new tab, I don't get the thumbnails appearing usually rather search.conduit page is open. How can I get my old settings back? I even uninstalled utorrent to see if the problem goes away, but it's not.

    Looks like led/Utorrent amended your preference of browser.newtab.url . First of all, check your installed programs and Firefox extensions for a related Conduit material or a 'Utorrent browser bar '. Uninstall if found.

    1. In the address bar, type Subject: config and press enter. The subject: config "this might void your warranty!" warning page may appear.
    2. Click on I'll be careful, I promise!, to continue on the subject: config page.
    3. Type browser.newtab.url in the search box
    4. Double-click the browser.newtab.url preference and change the url to Subject: newtab
    5. Also search about: config for driving/Utorrent preferences. Search for pipes and Utorrent. If there is, then right-click and choose reset

    I use Utorrent, but what can happen is that the Utorrent Installer installed also led. When you install programs, don't forget to read and not to go click happy.

  • New tab uses Yahoo as search engine - how to use Google?

    I changed my default Google search engine; I use version 35. When I opened a new tab and type in the search I get results in a Yahoo Search page. How can I change this so that Google is the default search for the new tab search engine.

    Thank you someone to help with this.

    You probably have some adware or toolbar that has changed the page used for a newtab.

    The addon installs, modifies settings and to uninstall. But you may need to remove the adware or which could change the settings again.
    BUT Note If you are using Firefox (American) addon resets to Yahoo as en-US search engine and you will need to manually select the Google later.

    Whatever the selected search engine to be used for the search toolbar must be used in other research including the address bar Firefox and the new tab.

  • research and new tabs take up yahoo no matter what I do in the options

    No matter what I do, the search engines in the toolbar by default return Yahoo! Remove all but Google does not help. When you restart Firefox Yahoo is the default value. Similarly, new tabs and the home page back to Yahoo after the reopening. This is a new laptop HP with Windows 10 and I just downloaded Firefox. I spent a lot of time trying to solve this problem and about to give up and to switch browsers. I bet that Chrome will allow me to use Google.

    Generally, changes in parameters are retained between reboots. If you change other preferences such as your home page, Firefox manages to retain those between reboots?

    We have an article of general support on issues that may lead to changes to get lost between sessions: How to fix preferences that will not save.

    Two other thoughts:

    (1) some software utility/security/life private changes the folder of Firefox settings between sessions. This includes Advanced SystemCare and various programs 'homepage protection' or "browsing protection" feature. If you have any software with a similar feature, disable it until everything is set as you want and stable.

    (2) you might check all the extensions that could possibly change the settings when you start Firefox. You can do this on the page modules. Either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, take a critical look on the list on the right side. On a new installation, it is usually empty, unless Firefox has detected the extensions that already exist on your system. Something unexpected?

  • By clicking on a search result from goole seaech bar, always opening google search homepage but cannot open search in a new tab by clicking medium, really frustrating.

    Whenever I am clicking on the results of the search from the Google search bar, it always opens the homepage of Google. I can only open in a new tab search results by clicking twice. It started when I installed Firefox 12.

    Off all extensions and on each one. Everytime you had to restart the browser. The problem is resolved after you turn off the 'Indian Rail Info App 4.78 Firefox' extension. He worked with previous versions of Firefox but the problem came with the installation of Firefox 12.

  • I can't get a new tab to open on an empty page

    I installed the new Strawberry override tab he cannot locate. How eo I find it?
    Thank you

    Changing the value of the string that I mentioned in my previous post, will change the page that appears in your new tab. The default value is about:newtab , but it can be changed to anything you want.

    To change the page to the new tab, follow these steps:

    1. Type of about:config in the location bar of Firefox and press enter
    2. Click accept in the page to enter configurations
    3. Locate the [email protected] string or search for it in the search bar on this page
    4. Double-click the string to change the value
    5. Enter the URL of the Web site that you want to use as a new tab in the dialog box that appears
    6. Press the ok button

    This should change the new tab page that appears when you open a new tab. If the changes do not affect, try restarting Firefox and then check again.

    If you want to use one of the pages by default Firefox as a new tab instead of a Web page, you can use about:newtab or about:home as the URL for the new tab.

    I hope this has clarified the steps for you. If you need additional information, please let us know.

  • CTRL-left click goes to the new tab

    I don't know what happened but I have not changed the settings and now my Firefox guard opening new tabs and pass to them even if "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately" is unchecked in the settings and the browser.tabs.loadInBackground and services.sync.prefs.sync.browser.tabs.loadInBackground are set to true in the subject: config. I also tried the extension "Switch to tab no more" and it does not work. I have no idea what caused my browser to act this way, but it's pretty frustrating.

    It depends on whether the link is designed to stay in the same tab or open a new window. Firefox has a distinct preference for each, and only the 'same tab' is on the Options page.

    This gives a test:

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press enter/return. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste the tabs and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double click on the preference of browser.tabs.load InBackground ofdiversion for the value by default false true - line should turn "BOLD"

    Who help me?

    Since there are a number of similar sounding preferences, here is my understanding when they apply:

    • browser.tabs.loadInBackground = > when you open a regular link in a new tab using Ctrl + click (or right click > open in a new tab)

      • default = true, do not have the new active tab
      • In the page Options dialog box, this is controlled by him "when I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately" setting.
    • Browser.Tabs.Load InBackground ofdiversion = > when divert you a new window generated by script in a new tab using Ctrl + click, or a page using the link target attribute in a new launcher and divert you a new tab

      • default = false, activate the new tab
    • Browser.Tabs.LoadFavoritesInBackground = > when you load a bookmark in a new tab using Ctrl + click (or right click > open in a new tab)

      • default = false, activate the new tab
  • When I open a new tab, I don't want to appear on the top, help me

    I remove the tick in the settings but I don't have this problem
    When I open a new tab in my bookmarks toolbar, that it must be on top.

    Do you mean when you Ctrl + click a bookmark (or use the right click > open in a new tab), you want the tab to load quietly in the background without switching to it right away? There is a hidden for this parameter.

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press enter/return. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste the tabs and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double click on the preference browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground to put the default value false true - line should be "BOLD"

    If you test, change work?

    Since there are a number of similar sounding preferences, here is my understanding when they apply:

    • browser.tabs.loadInBackground = > when you open a regular link in a new tab using Ctrl + click (or right click > open in a new tab)

    I have a hijacking my new tab search engine and tried to go in the About: config, but every time I try and change the browser.newtab.url that will not change. Can someone help me solve this problem, I suspect that it is malware.

    There are two ways to interpret your description:

    • you right-click > reset but instead of changing about: newtab (default setting), it remains the value to something
    • the preference is defined: newtab but Firefox shows a different page

    Assuming that this is the second case, you can have an unwanted extension that is the substitution of your new tab page. Try this:

    Disable all non-essential or unrecognized extensions on page modules. Either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > Add ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, when in doubt, turn off.

    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.

    That help return you to the page of the new normal tab?

    P.S., Chrome also has a page of extensions, someone in this menu of '3 '.
