Blank tabs
Opening Firefox I am getting a blank new tab, even though I have a home page designated. Clicking any bookmark or entering a web address just brings up a blank New tab. This has been the same for a week, was hoping for an update as lots of people on the forum have similar issues. How can this be fixed.

Did you check your security software?
It is possible that your firewall or other security software 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 install for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

@Flyingteeth, would you be able to install this test build of firefox and give us feedback if the issue is still occurring there?: https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/try-builds/honzab.moz@firemni.cz-aca10cf61c76a4e3a21a2eb369e0df16e7573d3c/try-win32/firefox-46.0.1.en-US.win32.installer.exe
