Hi ahsweetnena,
open about:config page and you can change the browser.newtab.url pref to about:blank to get a new tab with a blank page with the browser.newtabpage.enabled pref set to true.
In order to open about:config page do the following:
- Open Firefox and type about:config in the Location (address) bar
- When you see a warning, click I'll be careful, I promise
- Search for browser.newtab.url and change pref to about:blank
- Check that browser.newtabpage.enabled pref is set to true
Hope that helped! Please report back
Please Update to the latest Firefox 19.0.x version.

The Firefox Firefox 14.0.1 version that you currently run is no longer supported with security updates
Note that the build-in default about:home page doesn't require internet access and shouldn't slow down Firefox.
