ok, i've noticed a few times when i have multiple tabs open at different sites....if i go to a certain site in a particular tab then close that tab, it makes my other tabs automatically change urls...how is this done so i can stop it?...i'm guessing the particular webpage has code in it to make the other tabs automatically change urls...can someone post the code they use to achieve this so i can add it to my weburl blocking filter in avast?

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
