When I open a fresh instance of Firefox I get a Yahoo tab ( https://search.yahoo.com/?type=779227&fr=spigot-yhp-ff ), and my home page ( https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl ). I've checked for the yahoo redirect thing and it seems to not be on my system at all. So why does this happen and how can I stop it. This just started today and it is kinda grating.

Hi, Firefox is able to open multiple home pages with the URLs separated by a 'pipe' (|), so please see - How to set the home page, and in 'Home Page,' make sure that in addition to your home page URL (the Firefox start page is about:home but you may have set a different one, or the New Tab page, which is about:newtab) there isn't anything else - if there is, just delete it.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

You can check the target line in the Firefox desktop shortcut (right-click: Properties) to make sure that nothing is appended after the path to the Firefox program.


Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.

Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. All these programs have free versions.

Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

You can also do a check for a rootkit infection with TDSSKiller.
