Firefox is stuck on "new tab"
I can open my Firefox by my desktop shortcut and open as many "new tab" pages as I would like. The problem is I can't go to any other pages. No urls will work, I can type them in but as soon as I hit enter it just returns to the blank "new tab" page.
I have reset Firefox, restarted my computer, tried fixing my extensions and add ons. Nothing is working.
Help!!

Could you try Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode.
If Firefox is running, you can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
(If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode by holding down the Shift key when double-clicking the Firefox icon.)
In the small dialog that should appear, click "Start in Safe Mode" (not Reset)
Any difference?
Also, do bookmarks work? And/or does the search bar (the one to the right of the address bar) work?
It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
