Welcome page opens each time I start Firefox, my homepage opens in separate window. I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled and it continues to happen. Homepage is set to google and is present when I go to the general tab.

Glad you updated the Plugins, BUT did you thoroughly read the four articles at the top of my post and try the suggestions in those articles? You did not mention that in your reply immediately above.

Thank you for the time you took to assist me. In the end I uninstalled Firfox, then went into my program files and deleted the remaining folder. I then reinstalled with out any further issues.
