In my applications folder Firefox Alias keeps appearing, I now have 9 of them. Could you please tell me what they are? Also, when I go to open a new tab the screen fills with boxes of sites I have been to previously. I do not like this, how do I stop that from happening?

Thanks

You can delete the aliases the same way you delete any other file. Select the file and press Cmd-Delete. I have no idea why aliases of Firefox would keep appearing. It does not happen to me, but then I am launching it from the dock.

Aliases are the same as shortcuts. You can remove the aliases without hurting anything.

You can set the New Tab page to a different page by modifying the browser.newtab.url pref on the about:config page.

  • about:blank if you want an empty page.

If you want to keep the new tab page, but want to disable the thumbnails then create a new Boolean pref browser.pagethumbnails.capturing_disabled on the about:config page and set the value to true.
