Every time I try and open my Firefox.. it is fine and the minute I go to another website, Facebook starts to open automatically without asking and in about 10 seconds, the browser opens a new tab with Facebook again.

Any ideas?

This issue can be caused by the Facebook Toolbar 1.7.3 extension.

I do not have a Facebook Toolbar or any other plug-in or add-on on my Firefox that has anything to do with Facebook. It also happens when I open my IE
