Hi, have a look at Firefox repeatedly opens empty tabs or windows after you click on a link. Also be aware that it may be a malware issue, as mentioned and linked at the bottom of the article.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

A new window opens with the home page(s) as set in Options/Preferences > General.

You can check the home page setting:

  • Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page

Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.

Sorry but that didn't help. The additional new tabs or windows that open direct me to helplines for troubleshooting computers. So when I click on a link, not only does that link open but at least 1-2 other either tabs or will open up as well leaving me to scramble to close the offending site(s). McAfee says its all up and running but it's as if something is turned off thanks

Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. All these programs have free versions.

Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

You can also do a check for a rootkit infection with TDSSKiller.

Nothing helped till I spent 70.00 with Mcafee...it's working fine now!
