opens with a tab in place and when i try to close it, the entire window closes
just updatrd to firefox 23.0. i have it set to open with a blank page. when i open a window, there is a "new tab" with the plus sign next to it. i didn't ask for this feature. i can't find a way to make it not happen. i takes up space. it is irritating. i want it gone. when i click on close tab in the file menu, the entire window closes. please tell me how to open firefox and get the blank page as usual. ty.

Yes, this is a change in Firefox 23 to always have the tab bar visible. It's part of a series of changes expected to culminate with a major makeover in Firefox 26.
For now, there is an extension to revert to the previous behavior of hiding the tab bar when there is only one tab: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/hide-tab-bar-with-one-tab/
