How can I re-set new tab homepages? A website has made itself appear every time I open a new tab.
My new tabs keep startying up with imesh, a website I don't want and haven't made a homepage. Firefox options don't show this is in your tab start-up system. How can I get rid of it?

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

-> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Content -> place Checkmarks on:
1) Block Pop-up windows 2) Load images automatically 3) Enable JavaScript
