I just updated FF to v.13.0 and now whenever I open a new tab, I see greyed out thumbs of previous pages I was on instead of a blank screen. Also, when I browse some sites and click on a link, sometimes I will get a Foxit Reader error message dialog box that I have to click cancel on several times to get rid of it. This happens when I'm NOT running Foxit Reader.

That is a new feature - New Tab Page.

Thank you for the info. I feel kinda silly now. But, I guess one man's feature is another man's bug. Can it be turned off, or do I need to learn to live with it?

The Foxit issue hasn't happened since I re-booted. Maybe it went away.

Not sure whether you saw it, but the answer to how to turn it off is in the article posted by the-edmeister: New Tab Page – show, hide and customize top sites > How do I turn the new tab page off.

There is an icon with 9 little squares in the top right corner of the about:newtab page that disables or enables the new tab page (toggles pref browser.newtabpage.enabled).

Thank you very much. I guess I'm just old school.
